Who Is Bonnie Kemplay?

Edinburgh-based singer-songwriter 19-year-old Bonnie Kempley can't quite believe that she is supporting Adele.

"I'm supporting @adele in Hyde Park next week. Ehhhhhhh yeah… what? I feel so grateful to be on such an incredible lineup of women. Songs like 'Someone Like You' made me feel so powerful when I was a shy lil nine year old. 21 pretty much soundtracked my life at the age. Not that I could relate to any of it but it provided a good respite after a long day at school learning how to spell, count and not electrocute myself etc," she explained on Instagram.

Kemplay might be young, but she has a solid fanbase and three incredible EPs and singles to offer. She describes her music as "bedroom indie sad-core", and we are into it.

The young performer was named the UK's top emerging musical talent after winning the BBC Live Lounge introducing talent search, which was judged by Sam Fender, Arlo Parks, Tom Grennan, and Wolf Alice's Ellie Roswell.
