I LOVE BLACK BRITISH CULTURE. #blackbritish #ukmusic #blackbritishmusic

I couldn’t be more grateful for the community we have created. My dream has always been to spread joy through music. THAT WAS MOST DEFINITELY ACHIEVED LAST NIGHT!! We created a night to remember for everyone in the room! (And on the streets after too😭) THANK you everyone who came out on this Monday night and danced like no one was watching 💃🕺🏼. I’m gonna be taking a short break from the shows to focus on writing and creating the best art. Until then stay vigilant and stay safe🫡❤️

To “dream in colour” is a mindset my dad instilled in me since I was young! To have ambitions that fill a room and fighting for them. This Ep is not only a collection of songs, it’s been a journey. From writing them in my room to performing at sold out shows and festival stages. The many friends that I have met and collaborated with on this project, the stories we’ve shared, the laughs over beer, the rehearsal banter🤣 Everyone who came to the Sterling Sounds absolutely made those nights unforgettable, everyone I met at the festivals carried the summer too. Speaking & Meeting all of you guys whether it’s on the street, in a pub, on the train in the Dms, inspires me to constantly create and share music! A special thank you to my brother @bertiespencer_ countless hours until 6am writing, mixing, arranging. You are so gifted with an abundance of talent. You’re a brother to me. This whole journey wouldn’t be possible without you 🫶🏽 from meeting at the most random gig🤣 It’s been an experience for all of us, thank you for coming on this journey with me. “Dream on dreamers, Dream in colour.”
