Following Betsy’s appearance on ITV Weekend, new single Little White Lies has picked up additional support across Radio 2, 6Music, Virgin Radio and seen BETSY surpass 10 million early streams. Her debut album is available to pre-order now. With her powerhouse vocal range, direct ear for hooks, no-nonsense attitude and unerring ability to locate the sharpest grid references of heartache in music, Betsy is a once-seen, never-forgotten pop proposition. Crossing elements of churchy soul, euphoric dance and soaring power ballads, her self-titled debut album is shot through with unflinching lyrical honesty and draws from an unlikely musical background.
Betsy was born on a goose farm in rural Wales, finding her voice from campfire sing-alongs and the local eisteddfod (where she boldly covered Rage Against The Machine) to the powerhouse vocalists within her parents’ vintage record collection. Over the run of her acclaimed early singles – Fair, Lost and Found, Wanted More and Waiting – Betsy has emerged one of the year’s stand-out voices. Yet it is everything else she absorbs into her debut album – influences across film, art, fashion, travel and relationships – which have cemented her diva credentials.
