Lord Echo

Lord Echo is a multi-instrumentalist producer and engineer and DJ whose music imagines a world where reggae and rocksteady rub shoulders with Latin music, disco, African soul and techno. His production aesthetic keeps a firm grasp on the DJs need for quality sound material but never strays far from the ever popular sounds of the 60's and 70's, which he has put half a lifetime into absorbing.

Louis Baker

Louis is a rising star in the New Zealand and international soul scene. His lyrics are deeply emotionally charged and his vocals are enchanting. Louis has amassed over 3,000,000 streams of his single Rainbow and recently had sellout shows in Wellington and Auckland. Keep your eye on this boy.

Hollie Smith

Hollie Smith is one of New Zealand's most predominant & iconic musicians. After working with numerous bands including Trinity Roots, Fat Freddy’s Drop and Detroit dance legend Recloose, she was approached by NZ songwriting royalty Don McGlashan to perform on a movie soundtrack single ‘Bathe in The River’ that topped the New Zealand singles charts and became one of the biggest and iconic singles in New Zealand history.

Myele Manzanza

The son of a Congolese master percussionist, New Zealand born Myele Manzanza first gained international attention as one third of NZ soul act, Electric Wire Hustle. After six years of performing, recording and touring with the band that he formed, he left in 2013 in order to release his solo debut One (BBE). His roots in jazz and African rhythm, (as well as his childhood love of hip hop and dance music) bring a uniquely diverse take to his music. This is evident on forthcoming sophomore album OnePointOne where he fuses a traditional jazz trio with a string quartet, underpinned with an undeniable hip-hop swagger. Recorded live at the legendary bluewhale in Los Angeles the album features the stellar talents of pianist / programmer Mark de Clive-Lowe, and the Quartetto Fantastico string quartet led by Miguel Atwood-Ferguson (Suite For Ma Dukes), virtuoso bassist Ben Shepherd and guest vocalists Nia Andrews and Charlie K.
