About
Alice Boyd is a musician, sound artist and audio producer based in South London. Her work blends immersive field recordings, ambient textures and folk-inspired melody to explore our connection with the natural world.
She has performed everywhere from botanical gardens and woodlands to major venues including Kings Place, the Barbican Conservatory and the Eden Project’s Rainforest Biome, where she was artist-in-residence. Her music has been supported across BBC Radio 3, 4 & 6, featured in DJ Mag, TOAST Magazine and KLOF Mag, and she has collaborated with artists including Adam Buxton and Hot Chip’s Alexis Taylor, as well as organisations such as the BBC, the RSPB, Kew’s Wakehurst and the Wellcome Collection.
Alice’s practice spans live performance, installations and audio storytelling. She created the BBC Radio 4 documentary Shifting Soundscapes, produces the monthly Found Sounds series for Ffern’s As The Season Turns, and has given a TEDx talk on listening as a tool for change. She also contributed to the Sounds Right ‘Feat. NATURE’ initiative, alongside artists including Aurora, London Grammar and Hozier, giving nature official artist status on streaming platforms.
In 2025, Alice continues to expand her practice with new projects for Knepp Rewilding, Britten Pears Arts and her own evolving musical journey.

“Alice’s music beautifully reframes the urgent climate crisis into an opportunity for reconnection with nature.”
“Beautiful”
“Such a perfectly realised amalgamation of concept, melody and landscape is vanishingly rare, but Boyd achieves it with an easy grace.”
“Alice’s work is visceral, playful and innately communicative.”
“A perfectly judged tangle of synthetic and human voices, silences, field recordings, and unearthly gurgles that challenges as much as it immerses you... From The Understory feels like one of those precious first albums that contains the untapped energy of everything that could happen next. ”
“An enchanting EP that begs the listener to consider their status as a terrestrial”
