Mercury Music Prize nominee Kathryn Williams is a fiercely independent singer-songwriter who has attracted great praise for her beguiling contemporary folk music. With a still, pretty voice and pastoral pop melodies, her music is craftily alternative, delightfully relaxing and sometimes just a bit rude.

Kathryn first made a name for herself in 1999 when she produced her debut album on a budget of £80. Since then she has released nine further albums and worked with the likes of John Martyn, Thea Gilmore, Tobias Froberg and Ted Barnes. Her latest album, Crown Electric, was released in 2013.
