On 4 August 2022, in the Scottish Highlands, Katie Gregson-MacLeod sings an emotional chorus on her TikTok channel. Entitled ‘Complex’, the song has racked up millions of views and generated thousands of replays on the social network. The phenomenon was described by the media as a “global group hug” and led to her being signed to Columbia Records at the age of 21. Accompanied by her trusty piano, she draws inspiration from artists like Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen and Phoebe Bridgers. Her moving bedroom pop compositions speak of love with unnerving frankness. A raw talent at the beginning of a promising career.
