County Durham’s America’s Got Talent star to return to the North East

The Hesleden singer first captured international attention as a teenager on America’s Got Talent in 2018.

Her standout audition earned her the coveted Golden Buzzer and a place in the live shows, propelling her into the spotlight.

Despite finishing sixth, her success caught the music industry’s attention and led to a deal with Simon Cowell’s record label.

That early burst of fame could easily have become the defining chapter of her career, but Hadwin has continued developing as a singer and songwriter.

Since then, she has focused on songwriting, recording and live performance.

Her official website describes her as a British performer and songwriter, with a debut album, Little Miss Jagged, and a growing catalogue of singles.

Her latest release, You Only Love Me When I Lie, featuring Little Steven, came out on May 1, 2026.

She will return to the stage later this year on the Little Miss Jagged Part II UK tour, with dates in Hartlepool on October 31 and Sunderland on December 5, plus shows in Edinburgh, London, Liverpool and Leeds.

The Hartlepool show gives County Durham fans the chance to see one of the region’s best-known talents on home turf.

Her latest work shows that the teenager once celebrated for extraordinary covers is now forging her own identity as an artist.

Ms Hadwin’s growing body of original work marks a new chapter in a career that continues to evolve beyond her early television success.
