Dutch-born Annelotte de Graaf released her self-funded debut album as Amber Arcades a few months ago, a pristine blend of electric guitar riffs and half-sung vocals.
We caught her playing a secret show at End of the Road Festival last year, and this version of album highlight "White Fuzz" always sticks in our minds whilst spinning the album in all its finished glory.
She'll be back at Larmer Tree Gardens again this year, this time on a bigger stage and officially on the bil.
Amber Arcades play Green Man Festival and End of the Road Festival, see the full dates on their website.
Tickets are available for this year's End of the Road festival which will see Joanna Newsom, Cat Power, Bat for Lashes and more play.
