Ani Sandwith is a dynamic vocal powerhouse and multi-instrumentalist, fusing neo soul, jazz-infused pop, and raw rock energy. Praised by BBC Introducing as having “one of those voices that reaches out of the speakers and holds onto you,” she channels the spirit of blues icons like Elkie Brooks and Bonnie Raitt. Performing nationally since age sixteen, Ani has built a reputation as a memorable and passionate live performer, with sold-out shows, UK tours, and major appearances at Glastonbury, Mouth of the Tyne with Sam Fender and Laura Marling, and a residency at The Glasshouse ICM’s Summer Studios.
