She’s the sister of Thomas Brodie Sangster, and the two have shared the spotlight not only on screen but also on stage, performing together in the band that supports Winnet. Before she gained wider recognition, she appeared alongside her brother Thomas Brodie Sangster in the film The Last Legion, marking an early milestone in her career. Growing up in a creative household, she was influenced by her father, Mark Ernest Sangster, who has made his mark as an actor, musician, and film editor. With artistic talent clearly running in the family, her journey—often intertwined with Thomas Brodie Sangster—reflects a deep-rooted connection to both music and performance.
She’s joined in Winnet by her father, who handles the drums, and her mother Tasha—yes, that’s right, the very same Tasha who performs as Winnet. It’s quite a musical family affair, really. Over the years, she’s made her own mark too, like when she appeared in the 2007 movie The Last Legion, which was definitely a standout moment in her early career. When it comes to her sound and style, she often talks about how much she admires classic icons—Marilyn Monroe and Billie Holiday, in particular—who’ve deeply influenced her approach to music. And honestly, you can hear that inspiration in the way she carries herself both on and off stage. Winnet has definitely grown into her own, but those roots with her parents and those legendary influences? They’re still very much a part of who Winnet is today.
