Southwater 14-year-old Clarisse Mizoule has successfully gone through the Open Mic competition and will take part in the Regional Final at the Hove Centre on 18 October.
Clarisse said: “I have been working very hard over the last seven years towards my passion: singing. I started singing when I was 7 and since then have passed my grades successfully. I obtained my Grade 7 with distinction and am now working towards my Grade 8. I can’t wait to have my diploma and if all goes well I should have it by the time I am 16.
“Music was my first love. Although I am totally aware that the music industry is a very challenging one.
I am originally from France (born on Bastille Day!), I moved to the UK with my mum when I was three.”
