Phoenix Martins is one-to-watch; a powerful voice, masterfully controlled and laced with genuine soul, this young lady's raft of experience and bona fide star quality make her one of the UK's most promising new talents.

A natural live performer, Phoenix has been singing since the age of seven, when her and her cousin would charge family members fifty pence each to see them sing everything from Aaliyah to Nina Simone. She cites Simone as one of her biggest influences growing up, alongside Fela Kuti, Sarah Vaughan, Stevie Nicks, Jimi Hendrix and Michael Jackson.

Recently she headlined RoundHouse Rising after shows at Borderline, Cargo and Wireless festival.
