Bio

The Grammy®-nominated Scottish Musician burst onto the music scene with her 2004 multi-platinum debut, Eye to the Telescope, which spawned the global hits "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree" and "Suddenly I See." These songs established Tunstall as a captivating and dynamic performer, as well as a Songwriter with a singular knack for balancing introspective folk and propulsive rock."There are 2 immediate, recognizable pillars of my style," she says. "I have this troubadour, acoustic guitar-driven emotional side. Then there's definitely an electrified rock side of my work with rawness and teeth." After selling everything she owned and moving to California in 2015, she spent the next 7 years on her album trilogy. She describes the 1st record, KIN, as “an absolute Phoenix out of the ashes, it was the result of a profound personal shift, and finding my feet again after facing some really hard truths." More challenges awaited her upon the release of 2018's WAX. "Halfway through the tour for WAX, I completely lost my hearing in my left ear. I lost an extremely important physical part of my body whilst touring a record all about the body." KT was understandably wary about what might happen while making her mind record, NUT. And of course, it came in the form of a global pandemic. However, now that the trilogy is complete, she has the perspective to appreciate the solace and healing she experienced as the songs unfolded. It's the soundtrack to me creating a new version of myself."
