She has more YouTube subscribers than the Beatles, attracted over a million listens on her social networking sites – and has achieved all of this before her 18th birthday. The statistics speak for themselves.

Gabrielle Aplin is a singer-songwriter from Bath in England and has been learning her trade since the age of 14, a refreshing discovery in this age of the fame-hungry X Factor generation. It is her cover of the You And Me At Six song, Liar And The Lighter, that has helped amass a colossal following on her Myspace page, echoing a route to success made by other recent successful female musicians, namely Kate Nash. Gabrielle may be best known on the internet for her cover versions of other peoples songs, including Oasis’ Wonderwall, but she also dabs her hand at original material and has been a keen songwriter ever since she wrote her first track ‘Reverse’, the same year she picked up a guitar for the first time.
