Lindsay Munroe

London-born Munroe began life as a folk artist, playing open mics and small gigs around her adopted hometown of Manchester. Yet it eventually became clear that her ambitions were higher than that. Since her departure from an oppressive church and the end of a long-term relationship, she’s been on a journey of learning exactly who she is when she’s totally free. It’s encapsulated in 2021’s Softest Edge EP, an ode to exploring beyond all constricting boundaries, whether musical or personal.

It took Munroe years to make the difficult decision to break from the church, even as her awareness grew that it was in misalignment with all of her values. When she finally did, and at the same time went through a breakup, her identity was shaken to its core. On her debut EP, 2020’s Our Heaviness, she explored the pain and turbulence that came with the departure. The EP garnered praise from BBC Introducing, DIY and The Line of Best Fit, and even an Instagram shoutout from one of Munroe’s heroes Sharon Van Etten.

2022 has seen Munroe play to growing audiences, touring with Kyla La Grange and releasing her triumphant-sounding single 'Wild Me'.
