Linda Harrison (singer)

Linda Harrison (or simply Harrison) is a Scottish singer-songwriter, vocalist and pianist.

Career

Harrison first came to prominence covering songs on the video sharing website YouTube. Harrison moved to Guildford when she was 17, where a teacher made her realise the significance of her YouTube success. Her song “Sunday Morning” had over 25,000 views. She discovered that the next Black-Eyed Peas single was going to be “Meet Me Halfway”, and covered it before it had been played on the radio, and got over 500,000 views. She graduated from Guilford in 2011 and invested in her musical future by travelling to Los Angeles. Then Harrison travelled to Austin's South By Southwest festival, where she met Ellie Goulding, Linda Perry and Perez Hilton. She had already met the likes of Katy Perry and Noel Gallagher at a party Perry gave that New Year: the musician’s life she had dreamed of now in touching distance.

Harrison released the single Be With You in 2012, in aid of the NSPCC's fight against child abuse in Britain. Paralympian and broadcaster Ade Adepitan chose it as his favourite choice when he featured on Desert Island Discs on 30 September 2012.
