Erin Vemby Anna Doyle, known professionally as Venbee, is an English musician. Her four singles, "Low Down" (with Dan Fable), "Messy in Heaven" (with Goddard.), "Gutter" and "Die Young" (with Rudimental) charted on the UK Singles Chart at numbers 59, 3, 95 and 73 respectively. She is a member of Loud LDN.
Erin Vemby Anna Doyle was born in Chatham, Kent. She suffers from ADHD, which allows her to hyperfocus on writing songs; she also suffers from depression and dyslexia, the latter of which meant she was unable to read properly until she was eighteen, and would keep a Voice Notes diary of how she felt day to day.Before releasing music, she worked in a pub, a call centre and as a personal trainer.
In 2020, Doyle released a number of laptop recordings under a pseudonym. In March 2022, Doyle released a video on to TikTok of a then-unfinished "Low Down" featuring Dan Fable; Doyle wrote the song after rediscovering a retired iPhone 4, and hearing how low she was. At the time she released the video, she had written most of her verse and the chorus, but neither had recorded their verses, meaning that the pair had to rush to record it. When self-released as "Low Down" on 15 April 2022, the song peaked at number 59 on the UK Singles Chart; the song would later be re-released by Sony Music as "low down" on 23 May 2022.
On 23 September 2022, Doyle released "Messy in Heaven", which included "Low Down". She wrote the song at 3am on her guitar, and after a dream in which Jesus walked down her local high street while drunk; and intended the song as an "anti-drug anthem", following a friend being afflicted by drug addiction. The song charted at number 3 on the UK Singles Chart, and spent fifteen weeks at No. 1 on the UK Dance Singles Chart. On 16 March 2023, she released "Gutter", and was written about her own struggles. The song charted at number 95 on the UK Singles Chart. On 20 May 2023, Doyle performed "Gutter" on Later... with Jools Holland. On 20 June 2023, she released "Die Young" with Rudimental, which charted at number 73 on the UK Singles Chart and at number 26 on the UK Dance Chart.
Doyle was inspired to take up guitar and piano after seeing her grandfather play. When asked by Clash Magazine in March 2023 what her influences were, she replied that the first album she bought was by Justin Bieber, and that she grew up listening to Carole King, Stevie Nicks, The Carpenters, Rihanna and Adele. She, piri, Issey Cross, Charlotte Plank, and Willow Kayne are members of Loud LDN, a collective of female and non-binary musicians based in London and its suburbs.
