A deaf Lewis Capaldi fan has signed one of his songs in the hope he'll notice her and make her dream of signing one of his signature tunes on stage come true.
Ten-year-old Niamdh Braid was diagnosed with bilateral sensorineural deafness - usually a permanent form of hearing loss - when she was just two.
The schoolgirl, from Glenrothes in east Scotland, taught herself British Sign Language (BSL), with the help of her mother, Sam, and her school friends.
She also used YouTube videos to master the sign language, the Daily Record reports .
Niamdh and her family have attended the Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival "for years" - which Capaldi will play on Saturday August 3.
The schoolgirl said she wants to inspire deaf children across the country by signing along during the hitmaker's Someone You Loved.
Proud mum Sam, 37, shared a video of her performing the song on social media - which has sparked an online campaign to get her on stage with her hero.
Her mother, a family support worker, said: "Niamdh is just amazing. There are no sign language teachers in the area so I had to do a course to help teach her, but she's more or less taught herself.
"We're so proud of her."
After learning BSL, Niamdh began teaching her classmates the words to a string of chart hits, including The Climb by Miley Cyrus and Cyndi Lauper's True Colours.
Sam said: "When Someone You Loved came out at the end of last year Niamdh and her brother Billy became obsessed with it. It was on all the time in our house.
"We go to Belladrum every year and Niamdh was so excited when she found out Lewis was playing on the Saturday. My husband Steven and I joked about her learning sign language for the whole of Someone You Loved.
"She signed the whole song, I took a video and sent it to a local interpreter who said it was more or less bang on."
The video clip, running two minutes and 40 seconds long, has now been shared more than 200 times on social media sites.
Sam said she contacted the festival's organisers, who "loved" the idea of getting her on stage with Capaldi.
They have reportedly been in contact with the superstar's public relations team - as the online campaign to see her realise her dream picks up pace.
Sam added: "It would make my little girl's dreams come true.
"All she wants it to show deaf children out there that they can do anything, and that includes going to music festivals."
