Her debut album, For All We Know , was released on 29 July 2016, leading to a Brit Award Nomination for Best British Female Solo Artist. [9]

In 2017, she released a buzz single, entitled "Nostalgia", as she tells fans that she was back in the studio recording material for her second album. During that time, she also appeared as a co-writer in Mura Masa 's self-titled debut album on the song "Nothing Else!", featuring Jamie Lidell .
