My Music Episode 236 - Beth McCarthy

Described as ‘an unstoppable force in the pop community’ by Music Crowns, York-born Beth McCarthy tells the stories of a twenty-something trying to understand love, friendship, and the feelings that come with figuring out who you are. McCarthy draws influence from the guitar-based-pop of Miley Cyrus, the lyricism of Taylor Swift, and the vocal vulnerability of Holly Humberstone. Her music combines pop melody with a rocky edge and a deeply relatable honesty that has led to over 27.5 million Spotify streams, 330,000 TikTok Followers, and the release of her latest EP ‘No Hard Feelings’ in September 2022. Beth has gained the support of BBC Radio 1's Mollie King, sold out her October London headline show (in 20 minutes), and completed a UK headline tour in May 2022, after support slots with Sigrid and Casey Lowry. She has also recently worked with adam&eveDDB as the voice of the CALM charity ‘Last Photo’ campaign, which featured both on This Morning and across the wider ITV network. In 2023, Beth McCarthy is releasing a new 5-track EP, will be showcasing at The Great Escape in May, and is touring the UK in June with headline shows at Omeara (London), Sunflower Lounge (Birmingham) and Headrow House (Leeds).
