While Hill came to prominence on The Voice, she had been singing and making music a long time before any TV producer was interested in her talent. She fronted a band called Shaking Leaves which saw some local success thanks to BBC Introducing, but thanks to a successful audition with a new BBC TV series called The Voice, she suddenly found herself singing live in front of millions of viewers weekend in and weekend out. While she wasn't successful in the contest, as she was eliminated in the semi-finals, she went on to have a more successful career than many of her fellow graduates from The Voice. A year after her time on The Voice, she had her first top ten single when she teamed up with the drum and bass producer Wilkinson to sing on his fourth single “Afterglow”.
It was a top ten hit, rocketing to number eight in the week of its release, she also worked with Rudimental in the same year, guesting on their debut album “Home” and joining them onstage at Glastonbury, Bestival and Lovebox festivals that summer. 2014 saw her biggest success yet when she teamed up the Dutch producer Oliver Heldens for his single “Gecko (Overdrive) which surged to number one on the charts and established Hill as an artist in her own right. She's currently readying her debut allbum and at 21 years of age at the time of writing, the sky is very much the limit for her. For that, she comes highly recommended.
Ex-The Voice contestant, Becky Hill, bounces onstage in a white crop top and sparkling Aztec skirt, making the most of the British sunshine. She described her sound recently as “leftfield, alternative, cool pop” and that seems fitting. Two Inch Punch-produced opener ‘Caution to the Wind’ is the perfect solo introduction to the world for Becky who I have been a fan of ever since she appeared on The Voice. Since then, she has achieved two number one singles in the form of drum & bass Wilkinson collaboration ‘Afterglow’ and recent house hit with Oliver Heldens ‘Gecko (Overdrive)’ – both of which receive mass sing-a-longs during her set. You can’t help but love how down to earth she is, there are no airs and graces as she admits “my onstage chat is rubbish” after she cracks a joke about the sun being up for Sundown. She later tells the crowd “I’ve got a bottle of vodka in my room so I’m going to the RAM tent to rave it up” – she comes across as a typical partying teenager. Becky’s rise to the top has been stratospheric but she’s still the same loveable singer, as she tells the crowd, “I was recently working in LA and I got a call from my manager and he said, ‘Becky you’re number one”. She proves that she’s a real pop-star in the making during her next disco infused single, the MNEK-produced ‘Losing’ which she says is out in a few weeks. It’s safe to say that she gave the best live vocal performance of the weekend and I’ve already bought tickets to see her again!
