Our girl

Our Girl have been wowing a growing army of listeners ever since their debut gig supporting Honeyblood in September 2014.It was during that fledging performance that singer/guitarist Soph Nathan realised that, of the five bands she was then playing in, Our Girl was the perfect home for her redoubtable songwriting.

The product of a thriving Brighton scene that includes The Magic Gang, Dream Wife and Abattoir Blues, the band are capable of switching from stark tenderness to pulverising noise in a flash.Nathan's honest, personal lyrics float in a delicious array of sounds: rhythmic drum and guitar hooks make dynamic jumps to thick garage-rock riffs, then suddenly cut to beautiful, intimate moments oflone guitar and reverb-hugged vocals.

The trio have recently been playing with the likes of Sunflower Bean, TRAAMS, The Wytches, and The Magic Gang building up a head of steam that has seen them singled out by Lauren Laverne for special attention onBBC 6 Music, with the eponymous track 'Our Girl' selected for the DJ's MpFree feature. Soph Nathan, bassist Josh Tyler and drummer Lauren Wilson have been developing their devastating sound ever since, Their first physical release, ‘Sleeper’ released on Cannibal Hymns received critical acclaim and national radio play on Radio 1, XFM and Amazing Radio. The trio released the follow upto‘Sleeper’ this autumn with a four track EP titled ‘Normally’.

Our Girl have shared the stage with the likes of Sunflower Bean, The Wytches, and Dream Wife and head outin support of The Japanese House later this year.
