Alice Armstrong fuses modern Blues, Funk, Soul and Rock n Roll in electrifying, sold-out shows across the UK and Europe. Backed by a world-class band and often referred to as a combination of Janis Joplin and Aretha Franklin, her performances are described as a party by fans and press, leaving audiences laughing, crying and dancing all the way home. Voted UK Contemporary Artist of the Year in both 2024 and 2025, Armstrong also won the 2024 UK Blues Challenge, resulting in her band heading to Memphis, where they represented the UK and reached the semi-finals of the International Blues Challenge on Beale Street. She then went on to win the European Blues Challenge in Croatia, triumphing over 22 other countries to bring the trophy back to the UK. A thing of wonder Cerys Matthews, BBC Radio 2
