Born in Manchester and raised in Stockport, this British R&B singer, songwriter and musician started playing bass and guitar at the age of 14. Influenced by the likes of Lauryn Hill, Joni Mitchell and even Bob Marley, she engulfed herself with diverse genres and emotive lyricism. Now based in London, she debuted with her single “Make Me Cry” in 2018, in which she lyrically tackles her anxiety.
With a velvety thread weaving its way through the enchanting soundscape, her new single is an ingenious fusion of R&B with touches of jazz and soul. The song envelops a constant bouncy beat with laid-back guitars, soft keys and a delicious summertime feel. And with her soul-filled silken vocals bewitching your ears, this pool of auditory tranquility radiates sunshine from every note.

Although this singer and songwriter had released three albums and been on national tours, she put music aside at the end of the 00s to make room for a necessary change. She moved from Boston to Los Angeles, taught yoga philosophy and published essays and poems. In 2019 her muse found her again and with a refreshed Americana sound she returned with the single “Lonely Time Of Year”.
Pouring her refound inspiration and dreams, as well as recalling the tragic events of the California wildfires, into her new single, it fuses an emotional vulnerability with infectious Americana. Taken from her upcoming album “A Thousand Tiny Torches”, expected in May, it’s the boot-stompin’ drums, dusty guitars and her rich, expressive KT Tunstall-like vocals, that show you what really matters.
