# Findlay (musician)

Natalie Rose Findlay (born 7 June 1992), known professionally as Findlay, is an English musician originally from Stockport, England.

## Early life

Findlay started playing the guitar when she was around 15 and after about a year began writing songs. She took up music for the simple fact that she was not interested in anything else growing up. She joked that "[she] can't really do anything else."

## Music career

On 24 November 2013, Findlay released her second EP Greasy Love. However, after disagreements with her record label, Polydor, Findlay was granted a release from her contract with the company.

Findlay soon created her own label Mint Records and signed with BMG. On 9 February 2015 the video for the single "Electric Bones" was released online and the Electric Bones EP was released digitally on 4 September 2015. In March 2015 Findlay released the single "Wolfback" which samples from the Ratatat song "Loud Pipes". The video for "Junk Food" premiered on 4 November 2015 on Clash.
