Welcome to helenastrid.com

Helen's sultry tones of steel and silk make her one of the UK's most versatile and original singers of today. She's pleased to announce that she's never done drugs or been in rehab! Despite that, she's had some close encounters with living on the edge, getting through it just like you, and she's here to tell you all about it in her songs.

Accompanying herself on the keys, she is busy performing with her band Threadlines and recording for her new album. Listen to some tracks in the Media section.

BBC 1 News & Breakfast Show

Helen was interviewed on BBC 1 News and the Breakfast Show, BBC Radio London, to help launch the search for a song to represent London in the 2012 Olympics. She sang her own song for the Olympics and you can hear a demo clip on Youtube.

Recent performances include the Endorse-It Music Festival with Mad Professor and The Poetry Cafe, Covent Garden. She was writing with Chris Difford from "Squeeze" in Italy last summer collating material for her album. She is currently in talks with EMI for her reggae track "2012".

Recent press interviews include Time Out, Health Magazine in May issue plus Woman's Weekly in June 2008.
