“Harnessing the epic adventure of Kate Bush and Florence Welch, Helen & the Sirens blend beautiful, meandering melodies with intelligent lyrics direct from the soul to deliver an essential antidote to all the vacuous mediocrity. Sirens should never be ignored – and neither should these six girls.” - Tim Nixon, The Sun

Bio
Helen & the Sirens are an all female band fronting original alternative pop material. Their music is a direct result of classical meets band. It’s hedonistic, tribal, choral and poetic. It’s moving, sexy, feminine and strong. These girls are the voice of a demographic not represented in popular music today. In this world of ‘quick fix’ music, Helen & the Sirens is behind and for the thinking woman and man.
Finalists in the International Songwriting Competition 2012, Helen & the Sirens are beginning to cuase a stir in the music world. Between them they have played at Koko, Proud, Roundhouse Studios, 12 Bar, Barfly, The Great Escape Festival, SXSW Texas, Latitude and supported Mumford & Sons, My Brightest Diamond, Ladyhawke and Alessi’s ark to name a few. Helen has recorded at Abbey Road studios and played live for BBC London Live Sessions and leant her composition and musical talents to the likes of Diana Vickers and Lucinda Bell.
