I've grown up with a piano in the house, and that's where I started to be able to learn things by ear. Guitar kind of happened, and I was using it just for writing at first. Then, I was writing so much that I began to realise that I knew how to play, and that's when I started getting nerdy about it. Gabrielle Aplin begineargrow share on social

I write songs, and I sing them. I never formulated a plan; I can't tell anyone else how to do this. But it feels right, so I just kind of enjoy it and get on with it. Gabrielle Aplin enjoyfeltformulate Change image and share on social

I don't feel like a pop star. I like being able to live my life the same as my mates. I don't get recognised much. Gabrielle Aplin feellifelive Change image and share on social
When I first got signed, I bought a vintage guitar from the 1930s for £1000. I've bought a £400 SLR camera, too, which was quite extravagant. Gabrielle Aplin 1930sbuycamera Change image and share on social
