A world where self-expression is illegal.
A world where survival is everything.
A girl who will be heard.

The story begins . . .

Seventeen-year-old Teddy lives in the walled-in city Metropolis. Radical laws condemn all forms of self-expression and creativity, and the lives of the people are carefully constructed and controlled by the City Council.

When Teddy finds out the truth behind one of the City's biggest lies, she slips out into the darkness after curfew.

She is captured and held prisoner in an old bomb shelter that lies beneath the City. Here, Teddy discovers that there is a world beneath the Metropolis, a world where a growing web of clans are fighting to keep their humanity alive, and waiting for someone to lead them back up into the light.

Having always been a lover of stories and made-up worlds, she has fed her passion for self-expression with a healthy lifestyle of creativity and writing.

Since breaking into the music world in 2017, she has explored the themes of control and isolation. AViVA describes her songs as being about the 'outsider experience', an experience she expresses in all her lyrics, musical videos and accompanying imagery. With her unique alternative pop-rock emo sound, AViVA has created a groundswell online, building a strong community of fans - her 'Outsiders'.
