Harper Releases Video For New Single 'Bird In A Cage'

Fresh from her Download Festival set - which not only etched Harper into its history books as the festival's youngest ever performer but marked her first ever live show - today the astonishing 12-year-old vocalist releases a brand new track, "Bird In A Cage."

Harper first took the internet by storm with her mind-blowing cover of Spiritbox's 'Holy Roller' and captured the hearts of millions as a contestant on America's Got Talent. Over the two years since, Harper has gone from strength to strength, releasing multiple singles and racking up fans. Having been widely tipped as one of the acts not to miss at Download, her set was a triumph all round. Kerrang! promptly declared afterwards, "she's easily going toe to toe with artists three or four times her age, " and more simply, "This is awesome."

New single "Bird In A Cage" was co-written by Leo Valeri (Brand Of Sacrifice) and Ben Lumber (Acres). Valeri performed all instrumentation on the single. 

Harper enthuses,

"Bird In A Cage was written about feeling trapped and alone and being let down by the people who are close to you. This song is different to any song I’ve done before and I really wanted to show I can do more than just scream. It’s possibly my favourite song I’ve done to date! "
