Sally Barker's appearance as Sir Tom Jones' finalist in the Voice UK 2014 belies a long career in music - one that wasn't spent singing pop covers for a light entertainment audience but fashioned in the folk clubs of the British Isles. In a career spanning the best part of 40 years, English singer/songwriter Sally has released a string of solo albums and been a part of dozens more, notably with fem-folksters The Poozies.

In her time Sally has supported (amongst many others) Bob Dylan, Robert Plant, Jools Holland and Sir Tom himself, worked with inspirational musicians such as maverick double bass genius Danny Thompson, country folk-rock guitarist Jerry Donahue, the mercurial accordionist Karen Tweed and legendary drummer Dave Mattocks.

As well as working in the States with long-time collaborator Vicki Genfan, writing and recording 'in the wild' at some of America's most remote and windswept places, Sally is also busy as a solo artist and with the Sandy Denny Project. Check out her website for a full list of live dates.

Sally is still working on the follow up to her 2017 solo album 'Ghost Girl' and some of these songs are already in her live solo set !

?You have the most beautiful voice that has ever been on this show.? Sir Tom Jones on The Voice UK

?The emotion and passion in her voice, the vulnerability and fragility of her vocal is an art that not too many singers can master? Maverick Magazine
