Rising Star In The Skye!

Who is Freya Skye?
Freya Skye is a rising English singer, songwriter and actress, who is known for representing the UK at Junior Eurovision and starring in Disney’s Zombies 4: Dawn of the Vampires, as well as being signed to Hollywood Records. Her career started when she was just 5 years old, sparked by receiving a karaoke machine, leading to early singing and acting in school plays, with more formal training at a stage school and early projects like an education video in 2021. She lives in London, loves her family, dog (Ruby), best friend (Liv), boba and nerd gummy clusters. She was born on October 17th in Buckinghamshire, England and grew up there until she moved to London which was a big surprise from her parents.
Junior Eurovision
Freya Skye went to London for a ‘dance audition’ when out of nowhere came Lucie Jones, who was the leading figure in Wicked. That’s when Freya found out that instead of a dance audition, she was given the news about her performing in Junior Eurovision. In 2022, 13-year-old Freya represented the UK with the song ‘Lose My Head’ and achieved 5th place overall. It was one of her proudest moments for both her and her parents.

Zombies 4
In early 2025, Freya went to LA for her Zombies 4 ‘Chemistry Read’ with the famous actor/TikTok influencer, Malachi Barton. Before that, she sent in a video of her singing acapella. She was selected to star in Zombies 4: Dawn of the Vampires as a daywalker called Nova, who had visions of a vampire, who would turn out to become her love interest called Victor (played by Malachi Barton). She danced incredibly well and sang beautifully in all the songs but there are 2 main songs that stand out. They are called Dream Come True (a duet with Malachi) and My Own Way (a solo). In November 2025, a Zombies song called Snow Angels was released, another duet with Malachi Barton.

Zombies x Descendants Worlds Collides Tour
A few months after, Freya went on a tour with Mekonnen Knife (MK), Malachi and the cast of Descendants 4: Rise of Red (Joshua Colley, Dara Renee, Kylie Cantrall and Malia Baker), called Worlds Collides tour. They performed iconic Disney songs from both franchises with very special guests. Meg Donelly and Milo Manheim (from Zombies) performed their magical love duet, Someday, and Rita Ora (from Descendants) sang Love Ain’t It with Kylie Cantrall, and Liamani Segura (who will be playing a new character, Pink, in the upcoming Descendants movie) performed One Kiss. Freya performed My Own Way and her own song, Gold’s Gone, beautifully.
Jingle Ball tour
Starting from December 5th 2025 (in Los Angeles) and ending on December 15th (in Philadelphia), Freya Skye performed on the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball tour in December 2025, singing “Silent Treatment”. In addition to singing, she was a presenter for the tour. Following her performance, she announced her Stars Align Tour, which is coming up in my next paragraph.

Stars Align Tour
Right now, Freya is on her very own global tour, called Stars Align Tour where she headlined and performed all her original, newly released and unreleased songs (wearing fabulous outfits and working with her talented crew). She also did sound checks as well as questions and answers with her fans (The Skylights ). She will sadly be finishing her first leg on March 8th 2026, for Zombies 5, but will perform her second leg in June 2026. She also does a fun challenge called Silent Treatment, where in the middle of her song she says “Silent Treatment” and the lights go off, the music stops and she expects the audience to be quiet for around 8 seconds. The best audiences so far are Toronto and Chicago but London and Manchester can still beat the record.
