KT Tunstall is a Grammy nominated Scottish singer songwriter whose distinctive blend of folk, rock and pop has made her one of Britain's most celebrated musical talents. With more than seven million records sold worldwide, multi platinum albums and an acclaimed reputation as a live performer, KT has built a career defined by originality and versatility. Whether at home delivering intimate acoustic performances or electrifying festival crowds, she is recognised for her powerful songwriting, expressive vocals and pioneering use of looping pedals, creating a full band sound as a solo artist. Her enduring appeal makes her a sought-after entertainer for concerts, festivals, corporate events and special occasions.
KT's breakthrough came after a captivating live solo performance of Black Horse and the Cherry Tree on Later... with Jools Holland, introducing audiences to her unique sound and remarkable stage presence. That momentum led to the release of her debut album, 'Eye to the Telescope', which featured the global hits 'Black Horse' and the Cherry Tree' and 'Suddenly I See'. The album became a huge commercial success, reaching the top of the UK charts following its re release, earning five times Platinum certification and a Mercury Prize nomination. She quickly established herself as a songwriter with an exceptional ability to combine thoughtful, introspective lyrics with energetic rock influences. Her second album, 'Drastic Fantastic', continued that success, achieving strong chart positions in the UK, Scotland and the United States.
Throughout her career, KT has collected an impressive list of honours, including a BRIT Award for Best British Female Artist, two Ivor Novello Awards, a Q Award, a European Border Breakers Award and a UK Music Video Award. She has also received nominations for a Grammy Award, the Mercury Prize, the World Music Awards and the Hollywood Music in Media Awards. Alongside her recording career, she has become an accomplished composer for film, television and theatre, contributing music to productions including The Devil Wears Prada and Grey's Anatomy. She has also performed at some of the world's most prestigious events and festivals, including Glastonbury, Live Earth, the Nobel Peace Prize Concert and Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival. More recently, she was announced as a contributor to the new musical adaptation of Clueless, adding to her growing reputation in musical theatre following work on two West End productions.
