She Drew The Gun started in 2013 as a solo project by singer-songwriter Louisa Roach. Her debut album Memories Of The Future (2015) was produced by James Skelly, who added haunting riffs and an electronic element to Roach’s poetic narrative lyrics.

Since then, the project gradually expanded. Siân Monaghan (drums), Jack Turner (guitar) and Jenni Kickhefer (keyboards) joined, and made She Drew The Gun the four-piece it currently is.

In 2016, they won Glastonbury’s Emerging Talent Competition and subsequently played the John Peel Stage at the legendary festival. And recently, as part of the ‘25 Years of Parr Street Studios’ project, they recorded a cover version of The Beloved’s 1993 smash Sweet Harmony. Or actually, they re-invented it. Adding a rap and a far more rocky vibe than the sugar-coated original, She Drew The Gun’s version sounds like a song of their own.
