Alice Armstrong is an award-winning singer-songwriter and entertainer from Surrey, UK, known for her impressive vocal range, dynamic songwriting and unmatched stage presence.
In 2024 so far, Armstrong has been voted Contemporary Blues Artist of the Year at the UK Blues Awards, played sold out shows across the UK, chatted live on BBC Radio 2 with Cerys Matthews and is a common addition to Joe Bonamassa’s personal Spotify playlists.
