Lizzie Berchie on ‘NIGHT SHIFT’, Stepping into Her Power, and Why She Eats Ice Cream with a Hot Water Bottle

If Lizzie Berchie’s voice doesn’t melt you, her honesty just might. The South London singer-songwriter has quietly become one of the UK’s most soulful storytellers. Her latest EP, NIGHT SHIFT, captures the tension between dreams and reality, the hustle of the 9-to-5 and the passion of the 5-to-9.

In this interview, Lizzie opens up about taking the leap into full-time artistry, navigating self-doubt, and what it really takes to thrive in today’s music industry. From headlining sold-out shows to performing at SXSW, she’s proving that R&B has a powerful place in the UK and she’s not afraid to advocate for the infrastructure it needs to grow.

We also get a peek behind the curtain: the anime obsession, the creative friendships, and her unique ritual of pairing ice cream with a hot water bottle. It’s all Lizzie — grounded, radiant, and refreshingly real.
