Ella Eyre said she had to “learn to speak again” after having vocal cord surgery.<\/p>\n

The Waiting All Night singer said the experience made her want to perform on her own terms, and she left her record company in order to release music independently.<\/p>\n

Eyre, 31, who has been in the industry for more than 10 years, told ITV’s Lorraine: “I feel like I\u2019ve grown so much as an artist.<\/p>\n

“I felt like it was time to put my own stamp on my own creativity.<\/p>\n

“That was the one thing I decided when I was recovering from vocal surgery: if I\u2019m ever going to sing again, I want to do it on my terms and I want to sing music that I love and that feels like it speaks to me.<\/p>\n

“I wanted to find my sound as a solo artist.”<\/p>\n

\"LONDON,
\nElla Eyre has opened up about her vocal cord surgery<\/p>\n

Describing her recovery, Eyre said: “I had to learn to speak again.<\/p>\n

“After the surgery I wasn\u2019t allowed to speak for a whole month; it was very difficult.<\/p>\n

“Also you\u2019re not allowed to cry and you\u2019re not allowed to laugh, so all quite natural responses in that time.”<\/p>\n

Eyre said she is about to embark on a candlelight tour to perform acoustic versions of her songs.<\/p>\n

She added: “I just thought what better way to celebrate my album than to strip it all back?<\/p>\n

“No bells and whistles, no pyro and outfit changes.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s just going to me and my band in these beautiful cavernous rooms like cathedrals, and with thousands of candles.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s going to be really beautiful and Christmassy.”<\/p>\n

The four-date tour begins in Manchester on 4 December 4, with shows in London and Edinburgh before the final night at St George\u2019s Hall in Liverpool on 13 December.<\/p>\n
