OLIVIA BROADFIELD

Olivia Broadfield is a young artist from the UK...26 is young OK!? (27 dammit...stupid birthdays!)...although living in a bungalow in a cul de sac in a teeny tiny village is hardly a good way to prove that! At a time when the charts are saturated with girls wielding guitars, Olivia offers something different, blending the electronic stylings of Imogen Heap with the vocal shades of Feist. With American publishers PigFACTORY and Lionsgate on board, Olivia has made a big impact in The States, with songs in the top-rated MTV show The Hills, Jessica Alba film The Eye, and a placement in the ABC family drama Wildfire, a show which has helped launch other British acts such as James Blunt and KT Tunstall in The States. Olivia has also grabbed the attention of producer Guy Sigsworth (Madonna, Britney, Bjork, Alanis Morrissette)..."Some singers strike a pose. Some make attention-seeking songs out of gossip column inanities. Some merely raise a third finger, cough into a microphone, and are declared the revolutionary heirs of Rosa Luxemburg by those who should know better. Olivia takes you inside her head. And what a wonderful place it is..." GUY SIGSWORTH She has had airplay success in the States, where she was Number 1 for 3 weeks in Sirius' Hot 20, beating The Scissor Sisters to the top spot! 2008 sees the release of Olivia's debut album Eyes Wide Open, exclusively available through the website and on myspace and due for worldwide digital release later this month.
