Billie Marten is the musical moniker of Isabella Sophie Tweddle. originally from Ripon, North Yorkshire.
As an early teenager, she began settling on her own brand of saintly songwriting and genteel vocals, uploading tracks to YouTube and watching as the plaudits came flooding in. By the age of 15, she’d been invited to take part in two TV talent shows – both of which she’d turned down – and had her songs Ribbon and Bird played on BBC Radio 1 and 6 Music.
She’d also signed to Chess Club Records and released a flurry of folk-tinged lovelorn singles throughout 2015.
Now a spritely 17, she’s been tipped by Ed Sheeran, supported kindred spirit Lucy Rose on tour and featured on the influential 2016 BBC Sound of poll. As mad on James Blake as the sounds of PJ Harvey and Elliot Smith, her canny songwriting nous brings raw depth to her mainstream sound, guaranteeing love from all corners of the music world.
Now with latest well-received couple of EP’s and a fair few festival dates in the diary, Billie looks to be rising up the ranks at record ,Sounds like kindred spirits Laura Marling comes to mind but also for fans of Marika Hackman and Lucy Rose,
