Katy J Pearson

In 2022, Katy J. Pearson returned with Sound of the Morning. In truth, her second album
wasn’t just the sound of daybreak, or the early hours. Produced by Dan Carey (Fontaines DC,
Black Midi) and Ali Chant (PJ Harvey, Gruff Rhys) and featuring guest vocals from Orlando
Weeks, it was a universal sound that suited every hour of the day, wherever it was played.

On the radio, the singles Talk Over Town and Alligator were A listed by 6 Music, the station
that declared the album one of the year’s greats so far.

In the fields, Katy played main stage slot at Green Man and rapturously received shows at
Latitude, Deer Shed and Blue Dot.

In the charts, it was the Number 1 independent album after picking up massive support from
the best indie shops across the country.

And in the press, it was praised as “captivating” (The Guardian, 4*), “a sweet elixir” (NME, 4*)
and “a record that contains a whole heap of guts” (Hotpress, 9/10).

And, in the autumn, it was the sound of the evening on a UK tour of the biggest venues Katy’s
ever played, a tour that sold out and cemented her reputation as one of this country’s
brightest stars.
