A British singer whose debut single "Once" topped the UK charts, with songs that blend pop, folk, and soul.
For a good sense of her sound, try "My Wicked Heart" or "Dead Heat." They show that pop-with-folk-touches thing she does.
She came out of The X Factor with a number one single, "Once," and built a catalog that includes tracks like "My Wicked Heart" and "The Boy Who Murdered Love." Her work with producers like Steve Robson gave her pop sound some folk and soul textures. Even with some early criticism of her lyrics, she kept putting out albums like Songs from the Tainted Cherry Tree.
She started on The X Factor and hit number one with "Once." After that first album, she released Music to Make Boys Cry and Yours If You Want It. There hasn't been much new music in recent years.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
