About
Since scoring a worldwide smash with her debut album Eye To The Telescope in 2004, which went on to sell over 5 million copies, and is about to celebrate its 20th anniversary, KT Tunstall has remained at the forefront of UK singer- songwriter talent. Tunstall outsold every other female artist in the UK in 2005, won the 2006 Brit Award for Best British Female Solo Artist, an Ivor Novello Best Song award for her huge, self-penned hit ‘Suddenly I See’, and a Q award for Track of the Year. She also landed a Grammy nomination for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance and lent her tunes to a host of movies and TV shows (‘Suddenly I See’, used in the iconic opening scene of Meryl Streep flick ‘The Devil Wears Prada’). Several critically acclaimed albums were released in the years that followed, culminating in a trilogy of albums on the theme of Mind Body and Soul: 2016’s Top 10 album KIN, WAX in 2018 and most recently, NUT (2022). KT has toured and collaborated with a dizzying array of superb artists including The Pretenders, Simple Minds, Hall and Oates, Roger Daltrey and Barenaked Ladies. Her many awards include Inspirational Artist gong at the Women In Music Awards and most recently, earlier in 2024, a prestigious Ivor Novello Award for Outstanding Song Collection. 2025 saw her perform a collection of ‘Eye To The Telescope’ 20th Anniversary Shows, including a duo of electric gigs in Glasgow (Royal Concert Hall and Barrowlands) as part of Celtic Connections, as well as her own headline show at London’s iconic Royal Albert Hall on June 23rd - her 50th birthday. A starstudded celebration, the highly praised show featured special guest appearances from Sir Roger Daltrey, Jools Holland, Mel C, Natalie Imbruglia and Rick Astley. KT has also written the music for the acclaimed stage musical of classic 90’s movie “Clueless”, which opened in London’s West End in February 2025 and will tour next year as well as several other forthcoming theatre projects, to be announced.
