  • Bridget St John is a British singer and songwriter best known for the three albums she recorded between 1969 and 1972 for John Peel's Dandelion record label. Peel produced her debut album Ask Me No Questions. She also recorded a large number of BBC and Peel sessions and toured regularly on the UK college and festival circuit. Her popularity peaked in 1974 when she was voted fifth most popular female singer in that year's Melody Maker readers poll. An accomplished guitar player, she credits John Martyn as her guitar mentor. The second album Songs for the Gentle Man, was produced by Ron Geesin. St. John then recorded another album, Jumble Queen, for Chrysalis Records in 1974. She emigrated to Greenwich Village in 1976 and virtually disappeared from the public eye for over 20 years. She appeared at a Nick Drake tribute concert in New York in 1999, performing "Northern Sky" and "One of These Things First". She toured Japan in 2006 with the minimalist French musician Colleen. Aside from work under her own name, Bridget St John has also recorded with Mike Oldfield, Kevin Ayers and Robin Frederick.

  • Bridget St John je britská zpěvačka a písničkářka známá především díky svým třem albům, které nahrála mezi lety 1969 a 1972 pro vydavatelství Johna Peela Dandelion Records. Její popularita vyvrcholila v roce 1974, kdy ji čtenáři časopisu Melody Maker zvolili pátou nejpopulárnější zpěvačkou roku. O dva roky později se přestěhovala do New Yorku a tak na více jak 20 let zmizela z očí veřejnosti. Roku 1990 se podílela na albu Amarok multiinstrumentalisty Mika Oldfielda. V roce 1999 se zúčastnila v New Yorku koncertu na počest britského písničkáře Nicka Draka. Roku 2006 absolvovala turné po Japonsku s minimalistickou francouzskou hudebnicí Colleen. O rok později spolupracovala s Kevinem Ayersem na jeho albu The Unfairground.
