Bryde is Pembrokeshire-born, and now London-based singer-songwriter Sarah Howells. As her bio states, she is “a girl and an electric guitar playing fierce and fragile songs.”

Her latest single “To Be Brave” is my first taste of her work and that description certainly rings true. It’s a haunted song that taps into something raw and personal, straight from the heart. Here’s how she describes it:

“Desire” is an exploration of the self-deceptions practiced on ourselves when we give in to our weaker moments. The dark and lascivious riffing throughout is performed on an electric baritone guitar (pitched between the standard guitar and a bass).

It’s the lead track off her debut album Like An Island which will be released on April 13 via her own label Seahorse Music. You can preorder the album here or from her Bandcamp page.
