Singer
Eastbourne

Alice May is an acoustic folk singer-songwriter whose music blends lyrical storytelling with evocative melodies, rooted in the rich traditions of folk music while embracing a modern, heartfelt sensibility. With a voice that is both warm and captivating, Alice weaves songs that speak to the soul—honest, emotional, and deeply connected to nature and the human experience. Raised in a quiet small town, Alice's earliest musical memories involve sitting by the window, scribbling lyrics into a notebook, or strumming her guitar —capturing moments and turning them into deeply moving songs. Influenced by songwriters like Noah Kahan, Taylor Swift, and Carole King, Alice May brings a fresh authenticity to the genre. Whether performing in an intimate acoustic set or recording in the studio, she approaches each song as a story waiting to be told—with gentle honesty and poetic grace. In addition to her performances, Alice has also been dedicated to songwriting as a craft. Achieving a First Class honours in her Songwriting and Cabaret Performance Degree. Over the years, Alice May has performed at a variety of venues, from cozy cafés and small town pubs to outdoor festivals and busking. Her live performances are known for their intimate atmosphere, where listeners feel as though they’ve been invited into her world for a little while. She values connection above all—between her songs, her audience, and herself—and this connection lies at the heart of everything she creates.

Alice was a joy to have performing with us! She set up a brilliant relaxed and chilled out acoustic vibe for our garden party. I cannot recommend her enough!

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Most of my clients love the relaxed acoustic vibe I can give their events, think Summer-Sunday-evening vibes!

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

I have performed at many pubs and clubs around the area, as well as a couple of small festivals! My favourite venues are small intimate reception settings or acoustic Sunday pub vibes!

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

My main influences include, Taylor Swift, Noah Kahan, Jonah Kegan and Niall Horan!

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

My most high profile gig would be a folk festival slot I had last summer! But my favourite gigs are small and intimate venues!

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

I always try to be as flexible as possible to ensure your events runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change just let me know!

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

This is something I'm more than happy to discuss, it is possible to use my PA system for an iPod/Phone service!

How much time do you need to set up?

I usually set up around 1 hour before the performance time, so we can check levels and make sure everything is sounding perfect for your event!

Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?

Yes of course! My set list is designed from many performances and busking sets that I've done but I'd love to discuss and chat through to make sure we find the perfect set for your event!

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes! I bring all my own equipment, so if you want a singer/guitarist or a singer/pianist, it is all provided by me!

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

If a song isn't included in my set list there is a chance that I may already know it! If there is a song you could specifically like to add then just let me know and we can chat!
