OPHELIA was born on the road one January morning on Highway 30, along Florida’s Emerald Coast.

Rebecca Van Cleave and Samuel Taylor had been performing together promoting their respective solo projects, when they decided it was time to join forces.

Once back at home in the UK, the pair set about making a record with David Glover from Tesla Studios in Sheffield, calling in prized musicians such as Greg Haver, of Manic Street Preachers and Super Furry Animals fame. Rebecca is also a model and actor and is best known for playing Lena Heady’s body double in the infamous Walk of Shame scene in Game of Thrones.

Ophelia perform at BrewDog in Manchester on April 27.
