Born on Scotland's west coast, Anna Sweeney prides herself on her songwriting abilities. An architect of sparkling pop hooks, the singer-songwriter's songs shine both lyrically and melodically.

Anna's impressive live shows are performed with grace, humour and conviction, as she effortlessly evokes both magic and realism through her polished, yet honest music.
2019 has seen the release of singles "Change the Way I Dress" and "Way Back When", both championed by BBC Radio Scotland. This year, Anna also made her debut at Austin's SXSW festival, and performed a packed out headline show at King Tut's Summer Night's Festival. Following a magical Glasgow headline show, Anna is preparing for a busy winter of live dates around the country. With a Kickstarter funded EP set for release in early 2020, and more new music than even she knows what to do with, Anna is well on her way to becoming your new favourite pop act.
