lo-fi til i die

Deeply intimate and awash with melancholia, heka's style of lo-fi warmth incorporates snippets of conversations previously buried deep within the notes of her phone, blending murmurings of life with themes of love and loss, nostalgia and the everyday.

Francesca Brierley - aka heka - creates aural landscapes, where her spectral vocals offer moments of clarity amongst the static. Rejecting genre constraints in favour of a sonic hybridity, 2021 saw her release (a), a collection of self-produced butchered folk songs which, through the melding of electronic and organic tones, delivered an EP that is as haunting as it is enticing.

After ‘no one’, a single released as part of Open Tab, a new imprint by NY label FireTalk; and High Tide, a collaboration with London producer GG Skips which was featured in the Slow Dance '21 Comp; heka returns with a new EP, out on September 22nd: ‘swan songs’.

Having toured the UK with the cult acclaimed White Flowers, Europe with Spang Sisters, as well as playing shows with the likes of Modern Woman, Indigo Spark, Sophie Jamieson, Tyler Hyde, Broadside Hacks and Aga Ujma, heka is an active player on the London indie scene, collaborating with a number of bands including Drug Store Romeos, Saint Jude and Gentle Stranger.
