The opposite of depression is expression. Music will save our souls—let’s all make it. Born and raised in London, Romany roots way back, one of seven sisters and three brothers, and yes—I’m ace at tarot. Body positive, loud, big mouth, big woman, big voice. I care about things—and you should too. The opposite of love isn’t hate, it’s apathy. Kindness needs no motive. Speak out. Believe in yourself. Intersectional feminism only. Trans sisters for life. My music is about people (also the name of my first single, played on BBC R4). In these dark times (holla Richard Strange), community matters. Love to sing at Ronnie Scott’s, toured Japan—that was amazing. Just keep making and creating whatever is within you and love harder than anything else. Hope you like the tracks, come see me live, I am always about and we can drink and find reasons to be happy in this mess of a timeline. Love Lilybud.
