London’s rising pop poet Holly Humberstone will take the stage at Al Forno in Soho on 2 April 2026 for an intimate evening of confessional indie‑pop. The Grantham‑born singer‑songwriter, a 2022 Brit Awards Rising Star and winner of the BBC Sound Of 2022 poll, has built a devoted following with haunting tracks like “Deep End”, “Falling asleep at the Wheel” and her debut album Paint My Bedroom Black.
Known for her razor‑sharp lyrics and airy, synth‑laden soundscapes, Holly blends vulnerability with a bold vocal presence that resonates in small‑venue settings.

It’s a rare chance to experience a Brit‑rising star in a setting that feels more like a living‑room concert than a stadium show.
