ARTIST COMMUNITY

Kit likes music. His propensity for the mix was forged in the drum and bass ridden streets of south Manchester, so he sought to play a different sound; a sound that might (potentially) have been described as ‘eclectic’, ‘juicy’ and ‘funkadelic to the point of ridiculousness’. He has stated his sole aim is to bring a selection of beats that leave craters on dance floors, and sweaty pools on the ceiling. A veteran of Indigo, Shoreditch BOXPARK (the upstairs zone) and his friend Steve’s basement, Kit is not one to miss.

Arguably iller than the thriller in Manila, Fintan O’Kane is one example of a DJ who has taken the dedication to their craft to the next level; having forsaken all his earthly possessions, Fintan took a vow of silence for a year whilst he studied at the ancient Alter of Breakbeat Badness.

A self-taught vocalist and pianist, 26-year-old George Bone is an award-winning Essex & London-based artist. While a pop artist holistically, George combines Folk, Neo-Jazz & RnB elements together with his thought-provoking writing & lyrics. His artists inspirations reflect this, ranging from country icons such as Christ Stapleton and Dan + Shay, to the British-based Bruno Major, Eloise & Conor Albert. Accompanied by a band, George is energetic; accompanying himself on keys, however, and you’re provided with an emotional, interactive experience leaving attendees craving more.

George has supported the likes of Mica Paris at The Ivy House, UK The Voice winner Molly Hocking at a sold-out show in both Camden and Islington, and Andrew Cushin on the day of his album release (after coming back from an international tour with Louis Tomlinson). If that was not enough, George has taken part in Festivals across the country, ranging from Northern Kin (County Durham), Wokingham Festival (Berkshire), Taste of London Festival (Greater London) and the inaugural Sounds Good Festival (Essex).

Amassing over 160,000 streams on Spotify alone, George is “on the cusp of tipping into the mainstream, this year or next” (Michelle Ward, PhoenixFM). His debut solo single ‘Valencia’ “[pushes] the genre forward with [a combination of] 00s indie pop aesthetics[s in this] emotionally disarming ballad” (A&R Factory), and both of his follow-up singles (“One/Two Summer Fling” and “Yours Today”) were made Tracks of the Week on BBC Introducing Essex & Cambridge. On the back of George being announced as the ‘Best Male Artist 2023’ at the Radio Wigwam Awards, and with more music to come in 2025, remember George’s name.
