Helen began writing and singing songs in her teens for the amusement of family and friends, and has only recently begun to share them with a wider public through the folk clubs and open stages around her home in Kent. Growing up in urban North London, she escaped to the great outdoors to spend many years in adventure education as a sailor and sailing instructor. Her guitar travels with her wherever she goes, and her carefully crafted lyrics reflect her love of the sea and her understanding of its colours and characters. She has a beautiful and true voice, and a knowledge of musical forms which is evident in the breadth of styles in her song-writing. She may not be well-known – yet – but she is increasingly being booked at festivals and clubs, including last year’s Sea Ilfracombe, when she proved a real knock-out to everyone who heard her, able to have her audience in gales of laughter at one moment, and in rapt attention for a more reflective song the next. Helen has recently released her first album, ‘Shifting Sands’, which is receiving excellent reviews. This talented lady is well worth catching!
