Swiss-Caribbean singer, songwriter, and genre-bending powerhouse Pilar Vega delivers her most personal and unapologetically bold project yet with Seven Sins — an eight-track EP that blurs the lines between R&B, neo-soul, and electronic pop, while delving headfirst into themes of identity, healing, and feminine empowerment.
At the heart of the record is the anthemic “Metamorphosis”, a track that captures the emotional and sonic arc of the entire project. With her signature sultry vocals and fearless lyrical candor, Vega paints a vivid picture of rebirth — a letting go of old selves and the radiant claiming of new truths. The song begins with reflective intimacy and blossoms into a euphoric, rhythmically charged chorus, showcasing Vega’s strength in building both emotional and sonic momentum.
“It’s about owning every part of who you are, even the pieces you were once afraid to face,” says Vega — and that ethos pulses through every track on Seven Sins.
Where previous releases such as her debut EP Women hinted at Vega’s ability to fuse soul with experimentation, Seven Sins fully commits. It’s a sonic mirror, reflecting back the trials, transformation, and triumphs of a woman carving her path through pain toward liberation. Each song is both a confession and a reclamation, allowing Vega to turn vulnerability into empowerment.
Born in Ticino and now based in Zurich, Pilar’s music reflects her multicultural background and Caribbean heritage, weaving in rhythmic nuance and emotional richness that make her sound feel both deeply rooted and forward-thinking. With standout performances at major festivals like Montreux Jazz Festival, Gurtenfestival, and St. Gallen Festival, Vega’s artistry continues to captivate live audiences while carving a unique sonic identity on record.
With Seven Sins, Pilar Vega doesn’t just push boundaries—she transcends them, offering listeners not only a captivating body of work but also a permission slip to embrace their own messy, powerful evolution.
