Mya Craig
Ebony Bailey’s Thoughts on Mya Craig: “Mya Craig is pioneering the resurgence of the 90s R&B sound in the home of Leeds! She is an star that is bound to shine bright. With her catchy choruses and her smooth vocals, she gives a sense of nostalgia for those that loved artists like Destiny’s child, Aaliyah and Ashanti.”

Emerging from Leeds Mya Craig is preparing to take the world by storm. The collision of smooth vocals with experimental house and dance music – treating fans to immersive and soulful releases like her latest track ‘It’s Up’. Her old-school R&B sound, showcases the young talent’s expert vocals and songwriting skills.

Nia Chennai
Ebony Bailey’s Thoughts on Nia Chennai:“Nia Chennai brings something so refreshing to the music scene. Her sensual lyrics bring an R&B and neo soul vibe to her music keeping her songs running through your mind without you getting tired.”
Check Out Nia Chennai’s music here:
Nia Chenai is taking us back to growing up in the UK- with her music taking us back to Lily Allen and melodies similar to Corinne Bailey Rae. Her latest tunes Wasting Time and See it Through have a drifting melody that switches between a rapper-esque flow into soft honeyed vocals. Nia Chennai explores relatable themes of love, heartbreak and self-discovery and leaves poignant messages which she’s hopes to inspire her listeners. Nia Chennai is already preparing for a selection of headline shows and we are expecting her to blow in 2024.
