Σtella (pronounced Stella) Shares New Single, “Belinda”
Today, September 16th, Greek artist Σtella (pronounced Stella) has released a stellar new song entitled “Belinda.” The track was co-produced by Σtella and Rodaidh McDonald (Jamie XX, Weyes Blood, Youth Lagoon), and features recordings by Rafael Cohen (!!!), who also collaborated with Σtella on her 2025 standout release, Adagio.
Adagio was praised by Wonderland, who called the album “pure, potent and impeccably cool, it sounds like a crisp summer’s night sat drinking wine and eating olives.” To date, Σtella’s catalog has over 300 million streams worldwide on Spotify. Additionally, her music has had prominent placements in shows like Industry and Emily in Paris.
Σtella has confirmed a handful of International festival performances this fall, beginning on October 9th in her hometown of Athens, Greece, for Borderline Festival, with additional shows at the Cork Jazz Festival on October 24th in Cork, Ireland, and at Corona Capital in Mexico City on November 21st.

“The fifth studio album from Stella Chronopoulou, performing as Σtella, is simply breathtaking. Featuring her enchanting vocals, immaculate guitar work, psychedelic synths, delicate percussion, and her first-ever songs in her native tongue, Greek, Adagio is a “27-minute meditation on love and desire, rest and time.” Blending elements of psych pop, bossa nova, Tropicalia, disco, and more, this easy-breezy collection delights at every turn.” - KEXP
“Stella Chronopoulou’s fifth album as Σtella, Adagio (Sub Pop), sees the vocalist singing in her native tongue of Greek for the first time, producing a beautifully wistful cover of the 1969 Greek new wave track Ta Vimata and an earthy funk call-and-response on Omorfo Mou. Running at under 30 minutes, the nine-track record plays out a brief but beguiling new chapter.”
