Little Fish is the work of singer songwriter Julia Sophie Heslop (electric/acoustic guitar / vocals), Neil Greenaway (drums) and Ben Walker (backing vocals / Hammond organ). Their sound is stripped back, direct and defiantly punky in spirit, but also melodic and true to the song.

The song lyrics come direct from the heart. They are often poetic, reflective and brutally honest, as seen in the lyrics of Bob Dylan and PJ Harvey. Julia’s vocals can range from aggressive and powerful, similar to Deborah Anne Dyer (aka Skin of Skunk Anansie), as well as Patti Smith. She is also very comfortable with her bluesy Janis Joplin voice. On other tracks Julia’s voice haunts and memorises, like Beth Orton with Sinéad O’Connor’s conviction.

Neils drums power the songs with upbeat, imaginative and vicious rhythms that combine with Jules cutting guitar strokes and arresting vocals.

Unlike many musicians, Julia spent all her childhood without listening to, or playing music. Throughout her youth and teenage years she dedicated herself to sport. As an athlete, she competed in many sporting events around the world, playing basketball at National League Level (Oxford Devils) and sporting a stint in the England U16s. She also trained with the Oxford United Football team, came first in many National and County Judo Competitions, competed in a number of County Cross Country Competitions and Bi-athlons (running and swimming).

It was only in her final years at school that she started to discover and explore music and writing.
