Anna Meredith 

Anna Meredith MBE is a composer, producer and performer of both acoustic and electronic music. Her sound is frequently described as ‘maximalist’ ‘uncategorisable’ and ‘genre-hopping’ and straddles the different worlds of contemporary classical, avant pop, electronica and experimental rock. 

Her music has been performed everywhere from the BBC Last Night of the Proms to flashmob body-percussion performances in the M6 Services, PRADA fashion campaigns, numerous films, installations and documentaries, pop festivals, clubs and classical concert halls worldwide and broadcast on Radio 1, 2, 3, 4 & 6. Her film and TV soundtrack work includes Bo Burnham’s critically acclaimed film Eighth Grade which premiered at Sundance Festival, and Netflix Originals TV series Living With Yourself, directed by Jon Dayton and Valerie Faris and starring Paul Rudd.

Her debut album, Varmints was released in 2016 on Moshi Moshi to huge critical acclaim, with 4 and 5 star reviews from press and media around the world, including Pitchfork’s coveted Best New Music.

Anna has since released FIBS in September 2019, which received more rave reviews from the likes of The Guardian, Q Magazine, Popmatters and Pitchfork:

‘Fibs is brimming with contrary combinations, irreverent genre-bending and serious innovation.’ - The Guardian

'Her second studio album, FIBS, is as limber and exhilarating as Meredith has ever been. Twisting and sweeping, full of sharp left turns and thrilling rollercoaster dips, this is Meredith at her most maximalist.’ - The Line of Best Fit

'"Genius" is a word, so overused and misplaced, but in the case of Anna Meredith there is a good case for its use. In her hands, sound is malleable, something to be shaped into new forms. FIBS, her second album, builds on the brilliance of 2016's Varmints, but is in no way a "follow-up." It's is a 45-minute, polyrhythmic, Technicolor explosion of ideas and styles that condenses her 20 years of composing, performing, and producing to create a work of wonder…’ - Under The Radar

 Anna was recently awarded an MBE for services to music in the 2019 Queen’s Birthday Honours List.
