Hailed by The Metro, Vogue, Wonderland & more, fronting Bailey Tomkinson & The Locals, recently being called the UK’s answer to “Daisy Jones & The Six,” earning comparisons to Stevie Nicks

Spending her childhood writing & performing. Bailey first had nationwide recognition in 2020 when her single “I Wish It Didn’t End Like This” shot to #1 on the charts, topping Dua Lipa & Miley Cyrus while unsigned & self-managed, her life changed overnight. In 2021 she hit #1 again landing major national press like The Times & The Daily Mail with “Bright Red” using her voice for environmental activism
