Fox Jackson has been enamoured by music from as young as he can remember. Inspired by the likes of artists such as Earth Wind and Fire, Kool and the Gang and George Benson, his music blends funk-fuelled melodies, sexy vocals and dance-worthy beats, creating a vibrant and distinct sound which is his own.

His career in the entertainment industry began at just 11 years old, when he landed the lead role as Billy Elliot, in the hit West End musical, "Billy Elliot the Musical". His time there solidified his desire to be on stage, while also pushing him to dive deeper into the world of music. Following multiple roles on both stage and TV, Fox soon made an easy transition to his first love and true calling, music. Discovering his own sound and style, Fox has since been crafting music.

I like to make music that tells stories, whether through descriptive acoustic ballads done with just me and the guitar, or an energetic live looping tune that brings people through a tale of sounds and feelings. Music is such an incredible gift from God and it's my calling to use it to get people to feel more connected to themselves and the beautiful world around us.

Hana’s sound is a seamless blend of Neo-Soul, R&B, and Pop that feels both intimate and anthemic. With dream-like vocals that float effortlessly through her tracks, the London-based artist is quickly carving out her space in the music scene. Whether it’s her hypnotic production or her emotionally charged lyrics, Hana has been captivating listeners with every note.

This rising star isn’t just about streaming numbers though, she’s been tearing up live stages, most recently selling out a headline show at Next Door Records. Her live presence is as magnetic as her recordings, and she’s been making waves across radio too, with spins on BBC Introducing, Reprezent, Future Hits, and the Global Soul Chart.

Hana’s debut EP, Until It Isn’t, is a sonic journey through the highs and lows of relationships, exploring themes of emotional distance and the power of communication. On the back of that, she also dropped "YOUR TIME" with Willow Newman earlier in 2023 which landed Spotify editorial playlist placement.

Of course, her 2019 smash hit "Fantasy" put her firmly on the map — and it's still got everyone talking. Now, she’s gearing up to bless our ears again, tapping deep into her Egyptian roots for her second EP, landing in 2025.
