Haim went on to record their first album, Days Are Gone. Whilst recording, Haim were touring, which included performances at the Glastonbury Festival. Haim's album went to number 1 in the UK charts, as well as being in the top 10 in several other countries. In 2013, Haim won numerous "Best Of" awards. In 2014, Haim began recording their second album.

With a great deal of excitement, a lot of relief and some anxiousness, the biggest night on the UK's musical calendar went ahead as the BRIT's 2021 celebrated the stars and artists that have made the biggest impact in music over the last year. As part of the Government's pilot scheme to get events back up and running safely the O2 once again hosted the BRIT's, not in front of the usual 20,000 fans and invited guests, but in front of an audience made up of 2,500 care workers and 1,500 music industry related others, with each of them having had to provide a negative CoVID test.

Haim

It's a difficult world out there for budding musicians; no-one has it easy, but the gender pay gap continues to dominate the creative industry.
