'For millions around the world, Kate is way more than another singer-songwriter: she is a creator of musical companions that travel with you through life. One paradox about Kate is that while her lyrics are proudly idiosyncratic, those same lyrics evoke emotions and sensations that feel universal. Literature works in similar mysterious ways. Kate's the opposite of a confessional singer-songwriter ... You don't learn much about Kate from her songs. She's fond of masks and costumes - lyrically and literally - and of yarns, fabulations and atypical narrative viewpoints. Yet, these fiercely singular songs, which nobody else could have authored, are also maps of the heart, the psyche, the imagination. In other words, art.' David Mitchell

Kate Bush is an English singer, songwriter, musician, dancer and record producer. Rising to prominence with her debut single 'Wuthering Heights', she has released ten studio albums, all of which have charted in the UK Top Ten. She has been nominated for thirteen Brit Awards, winning for Best British Female Artist in 1987, and has been nominated for three Grammy Awards. In 2002 she received an Ivor Novello Award for Outstanding Contribution to British Music, was appointed a CBE in the 2013 New Years Honours, and was twice-nominated for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. How to Be Invisible, a collection of Bush's lyrics, was published by Faber & Faber in 2018 and was a Rough Trade and Belfast Telegraph Book of the Year.
