Rooted in sisterhood, childhood friends Amy Illingworth and Lily Sturt-Bolshaw found their feet in the musical hotpot of Leeds to form Sunflower Thieves. Gathering plaudits from BBC Radio 1, 6 Music, BBC Introducing, Radio X, Clash, The Line Of Best Fit & more along the way, they released their debut EP ‘Someone To Be There For’ in 2022.

Self-managed and self-produced, Amy and Lily have grown the project with a DIY approach, from performances at open mic nights and BBC Introducing sessions, to being longlisted for Glastonbury's Emerging Talent, with their ethereal vocals and storytelling lyrics.
