'Angels' is about being in love.

I do love brash pop music. It's fun.

I always wear 'Hannah Marshall', all black.

I really love that: bringing people together and feeling the love.

Aaliyah has been an artist I've grown up with, like an older sister.

I only started singing at about 15, and it came as quite a surprise to my dad.

Chromatics' 'Kill For Love' has probably been the record I've listened to the most.

My friends call me an owl. Apparently, it's a combination of being wise and having big eyes.

I taught myself how to use a multi-track tape recorder, which was the first time I recorded myself.

I grew up in Wandsworth and was constantly on public transport, as there wasn't much going on around there.

I started out writings songs for what I thought was going to be a maximum of five people down our local pub.

There's a place in Dalston, in England, called LNCC, where you have to make an appointment in order to shop.

You become friends with someone when you're 16, but by the time you get to 20, you're a completely different person.

When you sign over your music to the BBC or Channel 4, you are signing it over, and they either use it, or they don't.

When I think about myself as a teenager going to festivals, you look to the main stage as the main entertainment of the night.

As a fan of pop music myself, I hate discovering that a favourite track has a completely different meaning from the one I thought.

My guitar sound pretty much came from discovering there was reverb on my little practice amp and really loving the mood it created.

You can't really sit and start singing into a laptop at an airport. Well, you could, but you'd have a lot of sound in the background.

I sometimes get asked, 'What's it like, being spotted?', but the truth is I don't, ever. I love that I can walk around, being private.

Mainstream pop is a bit more introspective and emotional now, like how Adele's 'Someone Like You' is everyone's favorite song, and it's so heartbreaking.

Rat Records in Camberwell is where most of my record collection has come from. It's like someone with my exact taste in music has handed them all their old vinyl.

I lived with my auntie and my cousin when I was growing up, and they always wore black, and I thought it was quite chic. It wasn't a goth or a social group sort of thing.

I had this all-American cheerleader girl, in Georgia or somewhere, coming up to me and asking for guest list at a show. I never thought our music would reach out to such a broad variety of people like that.

At a festival like Coachella, you're not necessarily playing for your fans. You're playing to some, but there is also a lot of people that have maybe heard one of your songs, but aren't quite fans yet, so you feel like you have something to prove.
