Harleighblu is an independent British neo-soul artist, songwriter, producer and DJ, blending soul, hip-hop and jazz into a raw, genre-defying sound. Hailing from Nottingham, her music is rooted in sharp storytelling, unapologetic lyricism and themes of self-worth and feminism. With over 6 million Spotify streams, she's earned acclaim from NME, Clash, Highsnobiety and HipHopDX, who hailed her as a "UK soul star."

Her 2019 album She, created with Berlin producer Bluestaeb, established her internationally, followed by collaborations with Illa J and Tall Black Guy. She's performed at Glastonbury, Lollapalooza and Gilles Peterson's Worldwide Festival, toured Europe with Carhartt, and sold out London's Jazz Café. Her independent career was also featured in the American Express documentary Unsigned: Backing the Dream, streaming on Amazon Prime.

Following her Help Musicians-supported UK run, Harleighblu headlined her stage at SXSW London and supported RAYE at All Points East, before taking The Mixtape Tour across the Atlantic in 2026, performing in Chicago, Nashville and Houston. Her latest single received support from Jazz FM, including Track of the Week with China Moses, alongside BBC Introducing London, Soho Radio and Bandcamp Selects. Combining live vocals, keys, spoken word and DJ-led production, she's now preparing her self-produced solo album for release in 2027.
