I write songs....about everything and anything my mind takes me to. I love it... and can't stop.x
PEARL AND THE PUPPETS
Learning piano from an early age, it wasn’t until university while studying to be a teacher that Kirkintilloch’s 21-year-old Pearl first picked up a guitar and her brilliant song writing talent began to flow.
Pearl is the quietly rebellious leader of this alternative pop four-piece, which includes her backing band The Puppets. Her atmospheric, innocent and quirky songs capture the coming of age spirit while breaking through the barriers of expectation.
Pearl has already gained a number of high profile fans. Posting four tracks on Myspace brought her to the attention of top management company Twenty First Artists (James Blunt, Elton John, Lily Allen) and a publishing deal with Warner Chappell. She also recently recorded with legendary producer Stephen Street (The Smiths, Blur) at Olympic Studios in London.
Pearl And The Puppets played Scotland’s Hydro Connect Festival this summer to rave reviews and more live dates will be announced soon.
Pearl’s feisty yet humble spirit has already got people talking:
“Pearl has a voice to fall in love with… “ Jim Gellatly - XFM Scotland
“…the sound of Blondie if they’d listened to Folk instead of Punk…” Jonathan Geddes - The Herald Scotland
“‘Armed with her distinctive sound [Pearl] has got plenty to look forward to”’ Chris Sweeney - Scottish Sun
