Greek Australian singer VASSY wins Icon Award in the US

·

Greek Australian singer, VASSY, has become the first female to win the Icon Award at the Electronic Dance Music Awards in Miami, the United States.

VASSY is the female artist behind some of the most well-known dance anthems of the last ten years. BAD, her musical collaboration with David Guetta and Showtek, passed two billion streams.

“I came to this country from a small town in Australia called Darwin, from a humble, hard-working Greek family with a dream to pursue my passion,” VASSY told EDM.com after her win.

“I’m beyond grateful and proud to say that being authentically myself through out my career paid off. Ladies, women can too be icons in dance.”

When it comes to dance music, VASSY is one of the most famous singer-songwriters having worked with Tiësto, Afrojack and other high-profile producers.

She recently reached the top of the US dance charts with the song Pieces, which became the most-played track on dance radio in January.
