Originally hailing from Birmingham and now based in London, John Myrtle began carving his brand of slightly off-kilter, heartwarming pop in 2019 with demos he uploaded to SoundCloud. Having caught the ears of Marc Riley on BBC 6 Music, John was invited on the show to play a live session, and soon his self-recorded EP �Here�s John Myrtle� was released to critical acclaim from the likes of The Line of Best Fit, Brooklyn Vegan, DIY Magazine and So Young Magazine.
John followed this up with mini-album Myrtle Soup in 2021, which was met with equal critical praise and garnered fans from the likes of Summer Salt, The Walters and producer Jonathan Rado - whom John�s 2024 single �How Do You Break a Heart?� was produced by.
Recently, John has embarked on several tours across Europe supporting Kate Bollinger, Cut Worms and Katy J Pearson and his next album is due this Summer.
