Person Open DS/UK/22371 Briggs; Hattie (1993); English singer, songwriter Briggs Hattie 1993 English singer, songwriter Female Chichester, Sussex, England (born)

Hattie Briggs is a singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, originally from Chichester but currently based in London. An independent artist and regular busker at Network Rail stations, she was fortunate enough to be spotted by platinum-selling singer, Alfie Boe, while she was performing in Paddington Station in October. A fan of Alfie Boe since seeing him in Les Misérables a few years ago, she was understandably surprised and thrilled when he came up and put money into her guitar case, and even more so when he messaged her on Instagram complimenting her voice. Hattie will soon be joining Alfie as the support artist on his 21 date UK tour starting on March 17th in Cardiff and finishing at The Royal Albert Hall on April 17th. She was recently interviewed on BBC Breakfast about how Alfie spotted her, and played live at the end of the programme. In a recent BBC Radio London interview with presenter Jo Good, Alfie said ‘I found her busking at Paddington Station and she's incredible, she's very very cool.’ International Standard Archival Authority Record for Corporate Bodies, Persons and Families - ISAAR(CPF) 2nd edition - ICA 2004 ISBN 2-9521932-2-3 National Council on Archives, Rules for the Construction of Personal, Place and Corporate Names, 1997 Yes RAHAKirkbride 4/17/2019 Rachael.Fragola 3/1/2022 d4810e7d-c25b-4dda-8abf-cd7e6d192990
