Hils is a multi-talented singer-songwriter from South London. With an effortless singing style, Hils beautiful Folk~Rock sound showcases mellow guitars and rhythms, with her extremely catchy, emotive and insightful song writing.
Hils was introduced to music from the early age of six when she learnt to sing and play the piano. She remembers forming her first band in her friends loft, playing blur and no doubt covers! A few years later, inspired by a few female singer-songwriters she saw playing in London, Hils decided to teach herself the guitar and start writing. Surrounding herself with musicians and producers at every opportunity, Hils recorded her first few songs and took the decision to pursue her music further attending the prestigious ACM music college. This saw the start of Hils Granger the solo artist as she got a great band behind her, finished writing her EP and began playing shows most nights around London and the South. Hils independently released her EP ‘Dreams Become Things’ on iTunes in June 2009.
During this time Hils also started playing session keys for singer-songwriter Ellie Lawson, sponsored by Quiksilver, playing shows regularly in the UK and Europe. Hils continues playing keys and singing for Ellie, Si Connelly and Archangel bands whilst concentrating on writing and finishing her debut record, which will be released later in the year.
