Sara Pétursdóttir (born 26 March 1997 in Reykjavík, Iceland), better known by her stage name Glowie, is an Icelandic singer. In 2018, Glowie moved from Iceland to London. She has ADHD and dyslexia. In 2014, Glowie won the Singing Contest of Icelandic Junior Colleges. 11 record labels offered her contracts, but she asked them to wait for one or two years before signing her, so that she could develop as an artist. On 10 April 2015, she released her debut single, "No More", through StopWaitGo. The song went on to become a hit, topping the charts in Iceland for 3 consecutive weeks. On 29 September 2015, Glowie released "Party". The song spent 10 weeks on the Icelandic singles chart, peaking at number 4. On 13 February 2016, Glowie released the song "One Day". The song spent 6 weeks on the Icelandic singles chart, peaking at number 4.[9] On 4 June 2016, she released the single "No Lie". The song spent 8 weeks on the Icelandic singles chart, including 2 weeks at number one. A music video for the song was released on 22 June 2016. In an interview with Official Charts Company in March 2019, Glowie said "We’re just focusing on the first few singles at the moment. An album is still very important to me – it’s just about tying everything together and figuring out what it should sound like. I don’t want it to be a bunch of random songs that have no connection, they need to pull together and tell a story.” In an interview with NME, she revealed that she is hoping to release an album in 2019 or early 2020, saying "I think it’s going to be a mixed pop and R&B record but with a dark twist, darker themes."
