BIOGRAPHY: Kerry Worton is a singer, songwriter and guitarist, who is no stranger to stage or studio. She has worked as a ses- sion musician and has recorded backing vocals for various artists and bands, most recently Spoon Speaker Man ( members of Indie giantsNeds Atomic Dustbin and Power Of Dreams). Kerry is now taking centre stage and is performing her original songs as a solo acoustic performer or with her band ( Cajon, electric guitar, electro acoustic guitar and bass). Kerry Worton recently supported The Smyths and Sham69 to name a few. She went viral after performing Break Up Song live on the online channel Narrowboat Sessions in September 2024 which received a staggering 250,000 plays in six weeks. It was this that catapulted Kerry, a multi instrumentalist, to record her EP. She describes her music as Black Country acoustic alternative rock which echos the sounds of bands that wail and hail from her birth place in the West Midlands. Recently Kerry Worton showcased her songs in New York, USA and Germany and performed live with her band on UK radio. Compared to the likes of Janis Joplin and Sinead O Connor, her voice can be haunting and inviting, then in a split second it grabs you unexpect- edly with emotional rawness and power. Equally her acoustic guitar playing draws you in with the energetic prowess of punk/ rock with the hypnotic undertones of the blues. Her single Mother U was released in December 2024 which was dedicated to fostering families, a subject matter that rarely, if ever gets mentioned in songs. The video to Mother U equally delivered the raw, emotional side to the song and was featured in RtE EntertainmentBehind The Music, GOD IS IN THE TV ZINE and Louder THAN War along with it being played on UK, Ireland and US radio. Kerry Worton released Break Up Song ironically on Valentine's Day this year, which she warned us wasnt your typical crying into your pillow bull%$& break up song ! Again this single was played on UK and international radio. Coincidently the music video, which was produced by Kerry, received rave reviews with its cheeky, apathetic approach to falling out of love. The eagerly, anticipated EP will be released in Spring 2025 with her debut album towards the end of the year. An incredible mu- sician who just loves performing and is versatile in her approach, whether it's performing her original songs as a soloist or with a band the energy and power remains the same. Kerry is a maverick and I cant wait to see where this trail blazer heads creatively next... I am continually amazed at her drive, determination and massive talent - Craig Walker ( Power Of Dreams, Spoon Speaker Man, Archive). Fierce, hook laden melodies dance over funky buoyant staccato riffs... from tenderness to strength, from lush reflective harmonies to soul'spanning
