At the age of six, Londoner Nilüfer Yanya began to write songs in her head, and by twelve, she accompanied herself on guitar. The first person to encourage her was her uncle, whom she jammed with in his Cornwall studio, and years later, where she would record her debut album. Intense and uncluttered, enjoy the grungy sound of "In Your Head."
