Session tracks: India Parkman

She started learning piano just 12 months later. She says "being a poor sight-reader, I learnt all my set pieces by heart and began to recreate songs I'd heard on the radio or TV by ear."
听
Soon she was experimenting with chord progressions and melodies and had written her first song.
听
Her influences include Coldplay, Adele and Lana Del Rey before discovering a love for A capella at university and it's her dream to write, and perhaps produce, for a living.
听
鈥淗aunting and beautiful melodies, delivered with a spine tingling performance鈥� - Andrew Marston.
