SOAK has announced a series of shows in association with The Line Of Best Fit called SK9, which will be free and take place in skateparks in the UK and Ireland.

She's also announced a new single called "Sea Creatures", which you can stream towards the bottom of the page.

Derry teenager Bridie Monds-Watson, AKA SOAK, has already proved herself an avid fan of skateboarding, and can be seen trundling along in the visuals for "B a noBody", and doing tricks in the clip for "Blud", so it seems like she'll be in her element performing her unique - and BBC Sound Of 2015 longlisted - brand of acoustic pop on the halfpipes across the UK/Ireland.

While SOAK's SK9 shows are free, capacity is limited and tickets do not guarantee entry; best bet is to arrive early to avoid the queues. Tickets are available here.
