Headfirst Editor's Pick
"Vulnerable, tender and epic, seemingly all at once, Piglet pair gorgeously emosh pop-music with masterfully disciplined arrangements. Think Caroline and Shovel Dance Collective meets Phoebe Bridgers and you’re getting warm, it’s gorgeous."

piglet is the solo project of Irish songwriter and producer Charlie Loane, born and raised in Belfast and based in South London. His new seven songs EP is a collection of tracks that detail his experiences of mental health, substance abuse, affirmations of self-identity, trans experience and friendship.
The EP includes re-recordings of previously released solo singles ‘mill’, ‘dans note’ and ‘oan’; songs which lead to a deal with London label Blue Flowers (Puma Blue, Nilüfer Yanya, Westerman) in early 2022. These songs were captured in a live session by NTS Radio of piglet's ex-panded 9 piece band featuring members of Goat Girl and caroline.
piglet released his first EP alex’s birthday in February 2020 on South London DIY label Double Dare, a warm set of songs which, like his writing with past project Great Dad, reflects themes of queer/trans experience, but with more of a personal focus. Two collaboration tracks with friends Porridge Radio were released in February 2021 through the Secretly Canadian label.
