Songwriting really anchored me.

When I first started, I'd play to a few people. My mum would invite everyone she knew and the venue was filled.

Every time I do something new, it makes me a bit stronger. Playing huge shows, being invited to play with Nile Rodgers after the Brits - all are mindblowing and I have a great team around me who are empowering. It makes all the difference.

I followed my gut and my subconscious told me the kind of music I wanted to create. But it wasn't easy.

I remember in 2016 when I got signed to my record label Good Soldier, which is a very small indie label. They took a big risk on me because ballads were the furthest thing from cool at the time.

That's the best thing about being with an indie label, it feels like a family. If it's a major label, they put so much pressure on every single.

I've been writing since I was 11. But I don't write with a pen, I just sing at the piano with one eye shut like a pirate.

Growing up, I promised myself that if I was every lucky enough to have a hit and also a hit that I had written myself, I would never get tired of performing it. I would always be grateful for that.

There was an open mic night when I was about 11 years old and I went and I played the songs that I'd written in my bedroom and it was the first night where I felt like I was myself at school.

I find an apple before singing really, really helps... It's like there's something in the pectin in the apple that helps get rid of vocal clicks.

When I first started writing songs, I was almost quite embarrassed that I couldn't read music and I still to this day don't really know what chords I'm playing, I don't know the name of them.

Going to school, sort of not realising that caring about things was going to make me stand out and make me weird, and I think also being a redhead and being tall, bigger than the other kids... Anything that makes you different at school makes you a target.

You know the way you tell your life story to a friend? I just told mine to a piano.

So when you're sat there and you're looking at a platinum disc on your wall, for a song you wrote on your own, it's like this is getting crazy, man. It's all crazy.

I was brought up in a bohemian household where my dad plays guitar and my mom plays piano just because they love it.

All of my music teachers gave up on me one by one because I couldn't read music.

I'm obsessed with American talk shows.

Me and my mom were just watching the charts like, 'Why isn't it stopping?' And now I've got a platinum disc in my bedroom.

At school I was really heavily dyslexic, so I really struggled academically with reading and writing.

At the age of 11 I did my first open mic show, and it was one of those lightning-bolt moments where I suddenly found what I wanted to do.

All my songs are based on personal experience, and 'Lost Without You' came out fully born.

I was in a choir at school and we were part of the BBC Proms back in around 2002.

I remember, a couple of years ago I was playing my first headline show, and it was to 100 people in St Pancras Old Church in London; and me and my mum were like, 'We don't know 100 people, how are we going to sell these tickets?'

I love the acoustic sets. Growing up, me and my dad would always watch those because we loved seeing the songs stripped back.

I'm obsessed with Beyonce. She's just effervescent, I love her.

I'm on a group chat with my dad which he named 'Dearest Daughter'. It's so sweet because I don't think he really understands that a group chat normally has more than two people but I love chatting with him in it anyway.

Selfies are one of those things I generally take but never post. It's more to remember the moment or what I'm doing.

Being signed to a major label was never an option because I knew having the time to find out who you are without pressure from other people is so important.

The thing with 'Lost Without You' is that for a long time I didn't feel like I could share it with people. When it came to releasing it, it was a cliff-diving moment.
