“A silly, smutty slice of arch brilliance that also makes room for quiet introspection.” ★★★★ – NME

“… experience [John Grant’s] customary level of brutal honesty, irresistible vulnerability and wit.” ★★★★The Line of Best Fit

John Grant’s beloved music has seen him collaborate with Elton John, Kylie Minogue, Amanda Palmer and Sinead O’Connor; co-write and perform tracks with Robbie Williams and Elbow and for Iceland’s entry in Eurovision.

He has curated his own festivals, recorded with the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra, performed on Later with Jools Holland, and was nominated for the BRIT for Best International Male Solo Artist.
