Rachel Taylor-Beales is a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist with extensive touring experience, whose music sits at the crossroads of Americana, alt-folk, blues, and jazz. Described by BBC Radio 2’s Bob Harris as ‘highly recommended’, Rachel’s unique brand of beautiful melancholy advocates for issues of social justice and ecology, drawing inspiration from folklore tales alongside her own life. Her latest album, Out Of This Frame was nominated as a best of 2022 album by Folk Radio UK, with tracks featured on the BBC Radio 6 mixtape.

​

 Rachel can also be found writing, theatre-making, painting and collaborating with other creative folks. Her gig-theatre show, Stone's Throw, Lament of the Selkie, was nominated by Wales Arts Review as a 'best show' of 2020. In recent months Rachel’s new drama-comedy Bag for Life was optioned for full production and tour by Fluellen Theatre Company. Her brand-new music and poetry collaboration with author-broadcaster-poet-comedian Robin Ince was released May 30th 2025 and is available to stream and purchase under the banner of Normally Weird Associates.
