Izzy Neish is a multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and actor from Stockton-on-Tees, North East England.
She grew up dancing around the kitchen to anything and everything her Dad would put on while doing the washing up… folk, jazz, rock, classical and soul.
Since discovering that more music existed beyond the washing-up-compilation-CDs, Izzy has been particularly influenced by artists including Laura Marling, Jesca Hoop, Joni Mitchell, The Staves and many more from all sorts of genres.
Mid-pandemic, Izzy rekindled a friendship from home: Ed Gill, who (in her own words) is a banging music producer and all round excellent pal. After a string of giddy drunken voice notes (and a lot of mutual fangirling over Sylvan Esso), they decided to meet at Ed’s studio to start recording ’Starlings’, Izzy’s debut single.
