LIGHTS, SYNTHS, Fou De Toi! That’s what you can expect from the Stockholm indie act along with some Oh Oh Ohs. Fou De Toi has been on the Kings favorite list for sometime, since I heard the track Dreams which has now topped 2 million Spotify streams.

The three piece are back with a new track Don’t Know What To Do. The track was produced by Måns Lundberg (Deportees, Veronica Maggio) and mixed by Lars Norgren (Tove Lo). The band notes “The song is about feeling affection for the first time in a long time“.

Fou De Toi which means ‘crazy about you’ in French is slowly gaining in popularity in the Nordic music scene. Wait, Sweden band with a French name? Oh, well, whatever, nevermind…

You’ll love soul artist Mide if the likes of Ed Sheeran, Bob Marley, and James Bay are on your playlist. The London singer-songwriter has a couple of EP’s under his belt and his latest Sooner OR Later is getting a lot of attention.

The kickoff single Names which has already clocked 10,000 SoundCloud streams was featured on ITV while the EP premiered on Euphoria blog.

His attitude matches his musicianship. He says “the plan is to play more and play better and take things bigger”.

Catch Mide performing Rich Mix London on May 6th.

Lots of cool artists coming out of London as of late. I like the duo Alibis, a collabortation between friends Richie Skint and Harvey Lee.

Having been raised on Otis Redding & The Clash, the indie duo shines on the new track Therapy which is taken from bands new EP via Blue Flowers. Produced by Cam Blackwood (George Ezra, London Grammar), the band has opened for The Strokes, recently played a packed show at The Social, gaining support by BBC Introducing.

Check the South London duo at Live At Leeds Festival on April 30th.

Up and coming KYKO from South London is creating a buzz with his latest track Native. KYKO is the 19 year old indie pop singer-songwriter Scott Verrill.

He is quickly mastering the craft of production & songwriting. Verrill is well on his way with a Radio 1 playlist spot and support from tastemakers 405, TMRW and WTGR.

He started winning audiences over with the single ‘Pull Me Up’ which was released in late 2015, clocking over one million streams, making Spotify US’s ‘New Music Friday’ playlist and the ‘Top 10 Global Viral’ charts.
