Much of Siobhan's songs are about the daily struggles of being a mother, and she has spoken about how her two-year-old daughter Cerys has been a big inspiration to her.
"Becoming a mum has been a big thing for me," Siobhan told The Sun.
"Its been a difficult journey because you want to raise a decent human being.
"Sometimes you do feel like it's a massive responsibility. I used to be partying in Monte Carlo or Rio and being crazy. Now I've got to make sure she's my first priority."
