From Myspace, to the streets of Birmingham, to Atlanta and then to London, TrueMendous has already had a really interesting career. Now this year, she announced signing to High Focus Records, the record label that brought us Rag'n'Bone man and the Four Owls.
The talented lyricist has been putting out music and videos for a few years, growing her performance ability and resilience working as a busker. Now transitioning to being a signed artist, she released her EP HUH? in March and is set to release her first album later this year.
We chat to True about what inspires her, what she needs to feel good as an artist, the lessons Busking taught her, and that relationship and process to working with High Focus.
Fascinating insight to a big moment in the career of a previously independent artist.
