‘The backbone of the British music scene has stepped out from the shadows to take centre stage’ i-D Magazine
Touring on the back of her debut solo EP Gatekeeper, her solo work reveals an outstanding contemporary folk singer whose music also wears the influence of psychedelia, jazz and choral music proudly on its sleeve.
