RACHEL CROFT
Featured on prime-time BBC 2 television, Rachel Croft is a London-based alternative artist, whose voice was described as “truly exceptional” by BBC Introducing. Blending the cinematic and soulful, Rachel’s multi-octave range flows effortlessly from fierce power to deep and deadly soft. Her honest and varied self-penned works have gained Rachel an impressive international fanbase, packing out venues across Europe on tours annually, and gracing the main stages of festivals including Wickham, Lindisfarne, and Cambridge since 2017.
Since relocating to London in early 2022, Rachel has performed at the legendary Troubadour, the Half Moon in Putney, the Green Note, Pizza Express Live Holborn, and St. Pancras Old Church, with many more dates around the UK to follow.
Rachel’s music has been synced on the BBC (Rebel Cheer Squad, 2022) and featured in Spotify editorial playlists such as Melancolia Indie and Indielandia. Her work has premiered in major publications including CMT.com, Louder Than War, and Tom Robinson’s Fresh On The Net, and on radio stations across the UK, US, Europe, and Australia including BBC Radio 6.
Following her liberating EP “Reap What You Sow” in 2021, which was described as “Powerhouse” by New Noise Magazine, Rachel’s new single Hurricane dropped in July 2022, and premiered on CMT.com. An ominous fusion of indie rock attitude and bluesy Americana energy, the new track pairs dark, rootsy swagger with Croft’s thunder-and-lightning vocals.
This potent and dark female forward repertoire, combined with Rachel’s formidable stage presence is one performance not to be missed.
