  • Bio

    With a distinctive voice and an emotive guitar style, Anna Searight approaches singer-songwriting in a fresh and unique way. Combining classic songwriting with modern looping ideas, her hypnotic melodies reflect influences of artists such as Tracy Chapman, Elliott Smith and Thom Yorke. Beginning her musical life as a self-taught 'bedroom guitarist', Anna went on to study music in Brighton whilst playing local venues such as The Komedia, Latest Bar and The Prince Albert with her band Ocean Delay. The summer of 2008 marked the beginning of her solo career, establishing her as a prominent artist in the Brighton music scene. In January 2011 Anna made the big move to London and has been making small but significant waves in the nine months since she arrived. June 2011 saw the much anticipated release of Anna's stunning debut Ep, Whisper. The EP features a collection of six beautifully crafted songs which combine intimate subject matter with tender melodies. ..
