From performing with her family at an Irish busking festival aged six, to appearing with her vocal harmony trio The Sugar Sisters on BBC Radio 2 and at the Royal Albert Hall, Heather McClelland's whole life has involved music and singing.

Raised in an alternative background which included Irish and West African musical influences, as well as several years spent travelling the country with her family in a converted postal van, her teenage years saw her love of Simon & Garfunkel and Crosby, Stills & Nash create an obsession with vocal harmonies that lasted through her university years (where she toured Ireland supporting Mad Dog Mcrea with her band at the time) and the three years she spent in Brazil, studying music and performing with some of Brazil's leading musicians. On returning to the UK in her mid-twenties, she continued to perform Brazilian-influenced music (appearing at Festinho, The Royal Festival Hall and Favela Chic) as well as collaborating with other artists (including champion beatboxer Bellatrix, Wah Wah 45's Stac, and Ninja Tune's Submotion Orchestra) but found her own musical interests leading to a more folk and electronic-influenced style. Stripping back her instrumentation and experimenting with vocal harmonies, she has developed an atmospheric and ethereal sound, drawing on a wide-range of influences including Bjork and Agnes Obel as well as all the music of her youth, brought together by her uniquely pure-toned and fragile voice.
