A Jersey singer-songwriter said she used to be “terrified” of performing live during the early years of her career but now found it a “magical” experience.
Nerina Pallot, 51, has released eight studio albums, with a new album called Fire Escape Symphonies set to be released next month as well as her new single Come Bring the Sun.
The singer, who was nominated for an Ivor Novello Award for her song Sophia, said she always wanted to be a musician but used to avoid performing her own songs live.
“I wrote a song called Patience, which was my first single 25 years ago,” she said. “I think it was once I’d written a song I felt I was good enough, then I had the confidence to perform my own songs.”
