'Talk To Strangers' is the bewitching debut album from this Suffolk-born singer-songwriter, Fiona Bevan. Bevan describes her debut album as "pop in disguise", and the dozen, dynamic songs have hooks, harmonies and melodies that linger from first listen, but are defiantly timeless and purposely hard to pin down.

Bevan, who has already tasted success as a chart-topping songwriter for One Direction, wrote all 12 songs on 'Talk To Strangers', which was recorded in producer Shawn Lee's Bloomsbury studio on entirely analogue equipment. Bevan plays guitar, violin, double bass, accordion, and harp, and even adds the occasional whistle of birdsong. Holding everything together is her extraordinary, sweet voice, as unique and distinctive as her mop of peroxide curls.
