Alice Boyd

Alice Boyd is a South London–based musician, sound artist and audio producer whose work explores our relationship with the natural world through song, field recording and immersive listening.

Blending folk-inspired harmonies with ambient electronics and environmental sound, Alice creates music and sound works that reveal the hidden textures of everyday places - from endangered birdsong and underwater life, to urban spaces and sounds lost to time. Her practice moves fluidly between music, site-specific and spatial audio installations, radio and podcasts, and compositions for film and live performance.

Alice’s work has been featured on BBC Radio 3, Radio 4 and Radio 6 Music, and presented at venues including Kings Place, the Barbican Conservatory, Kew’s Wakehurst, and the Eden Project, where she was artist-in-residence in the Rainforest Biome. Her music has also been featured in DJ Mag, TOAST Magazine and KLOF Mag.

She is the creator of the BBC Radio 4 documentary Shifting Soundscapes, retracing the steps of legendary field recordist Martyn Stewart to explore how the sounds of UK landscapes have changed over 50 years.

Alongside her own releases and live performances, Alice produces the monthly Found Sounds episodes for Ffern’s podcast As the Season Turns, and has created sound work for organisations including the RSPB, Knepp Rewilding and TOAST. Her recent projects include collaborative installations, long-form radio mixes, and a growing catalogue of field recordings released as sample libraries and sound postcards.

Alice has given a TEDx talk on listening as a tool for change and contributed to the Sounds Right ‘feat. NATURE’ initiative, alongside artists including Aurora, London Grammar and Hozier, helping establish nature as an official artist on streaming platforms.

In 2025 and 2026, Alice supported composer Yann Tiersen on his European tour, presenting performances that combine voice, synths, live looping and field recordings collected across the UK and beyond. Whether performing on stage or inviting audiences into immersive listening spaces, her work is rooted in the landscapes we call home and a belief that listening can be a tool for connection and change.
