Becky Hill

While Hill came to prominence on The Voice, she had been singing and making music a long time before any TV producer was interested in her talent. She fronted a band called Shaking Leaves which saw some local success thanks to BBC Introducing, but thanks to a successful audition with a new BBC TV series called The Voice, she suddenly found herself singing live in front of millions of viewers weekend in and weekend out. While she wasn't successful in the contest, as she was eliminated in the semi-finals, she went on to have a more successful career than many of her fellow graduates from The Voice. A year after her time on The Voice, she had her first top ten single when she teamed up with the drum and bass producer Wilkinson to sing on his fourth single “Afterglow”.

It was a top ten hit, rocketing to number eight in the week of its release, she also worked with Rudimental in the same year, guesting on their debut album “Home” and joining them onstage at Glastonbury, Bestival and Lovebox festivals that summer. 2014 saw her biggest success yet when she teamed up the Dutch producer Oliver Heldens for his single “Gecko (Overdrive) which surged to number one on the charts and established Hill as an artist in her own right. She's currently readying her debut allbum and at 21 years of age at the time of writing, the sky is very much the limit for her. For that, she comes highly recommended.
