Biog:
"Electrifyingly arousing, sharply perceptive, and all round outstanding material from this fresh new talent", “Hotly tipped singer songwriter ‘October’ at 22 shows a musical depth and maturity beyond her years”. October is currently captivating audiences all over the globe with her “well crafted poetry”, “excellent guitar and distinctive vocals”. She’s already played to massive crowds at Manchester’s Bridgewater Hall, Birmingham's Symphony Hall, London's Excel, BBC Radio One, Maida Vale Studios, Acoustic Festival of Britain, the prestigious London Guitar Showand of course Glastonbury Festival. Dubbed by the press as a “Melodic Rock Lady with a big future”, October is set to play Glastonbury Festival for the third time in a row this year.“Within minutes this talented lady had the audience eating out of her hand . she somehow has the rare ability to reach inside and touch feelings that are deeply personal and mostly lay dormant .Her lyrics are complimented by guitar playing that most male guitarists would be jealous of. She can rock out one moment and then in the next song play such sensitive fingerstyle guitar that you are drawn into her world of passion and intimacy.” (Article by Guitarist Magazine writer about October’s 35 minute set on one of Glastonbury’s outdoor main stages). October started off her career at a music college in Surrey where she self recorded her first demo, playing all the instruments, including the drums (the first instrument October took to). Less than 24 hours after finishing the EP, October was bombarded with phone calls and was subsequently booked for her first festival, along with appearances on the Musicians TV channel, where she recorded four more of her own songs. October then started work as a Luthier and a ghost writer for Guitarist Magazine around this time. She met and developed close relationships with fellow musicians from the likes of Frank Zappa’s band, Steve Harley’s ‘Cockney Rebel’ and Suzi Quatro’s band. They often played festivals and recorded together. Her playing style and live ability matured and developed greatly during this period, and October went on to perform solo at more of the UK's best festivals. Since then she has played to crowds all over the world, including Cuba, India, France, Italy, Sweden and The Netherlands.October is now based in the South East of England, playing all the popular music haunts including The Borderline, The Bedford, The Clapham Grand, The Spitz, Cobden Club, Halfmoon Putney, and Hackney Empire along with some of this year's most popular festivals.
