Coming together for the first time, at the exclusive venue ‘Under the Bridge’, the next generation of major artists – five of the UK’s hottest contemporary British soul singers and musicians.
Friday August 26th will see the largest showcase of unsigned and emerging soul acts the UK has to offer. The first of many will be held at Roman Abramovich’s new state-of-the-art exclusive live venue – Under the Bridge. With unrivalled concert facilities, guests can enjoy plush surroundings, VIP areas, incredible digital surround sound, a dynamic light show and a panoramic view of the stage – all of which adds to London’s newest ultimate live music venue. Kicking off at 7pm, the all-female line up comprises of:
Monique Thomas – A powerful vocalist with Gospel roots, her recent debut album ‘Unbroken’ was co-produced with Tony Bean (Usher, Kelly Rowland, Lemar).
Elisha La’Verne – This accomplished singer signed in Japan has recently returned to London from her sold out tour at Billboard Live in Tokyo & Osaka Japan. Now focused on writing new material, her latest EP ‘10k Above’ is already creating lots
of heat.
Hannah Francis – At 24 years old, her sweet soulful voice has called the attention of Leona Lewis, Joss Stone, Ms Dynamite, Lemar and Alexandra Burke. Now she steps out on her own for her debut album release ‘Means To An End’.
Izzi Dunn – An extraordinarily talented artist as a Cellist, sought after string arranger and vocalist having collaborated on projects with the Gorillaz, Mark Ronson, Brand New Heavies, Soul II Soul, Bugz In The Attic. She has recently released her second solo LP ‘Cries and Smiles’.
