Smooth Radio favourite Nell Bryden had quite the 2012. We went on a mini Love Live Music tour with her, taking her music to listeners in Glasgow, Nottingham and Newcastle. Her track ‘Sirens’ was then heard by mister Gary Barlow, who immediately used it on popular television show X Factor and asked Nell to go on tour with him. She has since toured with Jools Holland.

Nell also revealed that she had been suffering from alopecia, brought on by stress and decided that it was time to stop wearing a wig on stage.

A huge lover of performing on stage, Nell isn’t set to take a break and goes on tour with her own band the day after finishing her tour with Gary Barlow!

We caught up with Nell to talk about the fantastic year she’s had – watch the video below:
