You have to make time for fans, and you really need to appreciate them. You have to remember that if they weren't buying, playing, or streaming your music, you wouldn't be in the charts, and people wouldn't be hearing your music.

I feel, as an artist, it's important for me to write, and that's a big part of what my journey is - being able to write my stories and talk about stuff.

I think what's surprised me about the music industry is that you never know what's going to happen. I've had to teach myself that, because I love to know everything. I'm quite a control freak when it comes to stuff like that.

I always try and put out posts on social media about feeling good inside, and there's so much pressure for people to look a certain way and have a certain hairstyle or a certain lipstick.

When I heard 'Rockabye,' I was just blown away. It had been a long time since I had heard a song that had a message like that in it - about being a single parent and caring for your child.

Enter Shikari are a mash-up of everything. I used to really love dubstep when they first came out. They had those amazing basslines, so I loved going to the live shows.

All the kids at school would bully me and always wanted me to fight them. I never did, but if I wanted to, I totally could.

When you're coming out new, it's harder as a girl to gain fans because most of them are girls, and they can be like, 'Do we like her?' If I were a boy, it'd be much easier.

I love braids and just generally playing around with different hairstyles, especially for festivals and photoshoots.

I've tried yoga a few times and absolutely love it. I need to do it more. It makes me feel really good and relaxed.

I went to a performing arts school. I went to an audition for a musical, 'Les Miserables,' in the West End, and I got in, and my parents were like, 'Oh, you can sing?' So I kind of started singing properly when I was, like, seven.

For me, speaking my mind is a big part of my life, and I encourage other people to do that as well.

I don't want to have to look good all the time - that's not realistic.

I've got 'trust' tattooed on me, and I have a tattoo on my finger that's for my parents.

I feel at home wherever I am, to be honest.
