Line Up

One of the highest regarded Rock and Roll bands to emerge from Cornwall, The Forty Fours take influence from traditional Blues and Merseybeat to create an energising live set of covers and original material. Now based in London and following the release of their first demo album, Fourplay, they look towards a resurgence in classic British Invasion music.

Display’s of vocal harmony, raw rhythm and blues instrumentation and passion are what have come to be the essence of The Forty Fours. Always coupled with authenticity and style.

Comprising of Oliver Harris (lead guitar and vocals), Jason Bazeley (Bass guitar and vocals), and Jay Grieve (drums), The Forty Fours are a group that must be experienced, live and on record.

Soloist Educatable has been playing live and writing music since 2002. The set-up started as a school-friend trio known as 24/7 with Educatable on drums; before changing names to The Remedies and then Educatables - all as 3, 4 and 5 piece set-ups, and lastly as a duo with lead singer and best friend/songwriting partner Dom Slone who has since passed away.

The award winning band played hundreds of live shows to thousands of people, achieving success from BBC radio coverage to slots in football stadiums.

Wanting to emulate the spirit and camraderie of the band and loyal fanbase as it was, Educatable has now evolved into a solo act with brand new music and a modern, fresh, upbeat, take on the indie pop/rock (with hints of Africana) sound of before - reinvented for the ever changing music world. Multi-instrumentalist Educatable has now taken the role as lead singer and guitarist with an audience inclusive and captivating approach to showcase the new look and is already taking the sound to new heights and making waves around the country. Come and watch the unique, illuminant and unmissable live shows which are selling out venues, and join the new Educatable Army. #jointhemovement #educatabletakeover

Swiss-raised, London-based May Roze stays true to her Aquarian side, by artistically reinventing herself throughout her journey from a 3-year-old singer and stage performer, to a songwriter at 16, adding production chops to her repertoire 6 years ago.

Influenced by visionaries Kate Bush, Sade, Björk, & Enya, May cut her teeth in musical plays aged 6 as another stage in fashioning a sound and identity.

Known for her vocal technique and resilience honed by international coaches Nick Cooper (Beyoncé, Ciara, Nicki Minaj), May Roze has 3-piece performances in planning for 2023.

From gigging all over Switzerland, to working on multiple recordings at Metropolis studios in London (Lana Del Rey, Prince, Amy Winehouse), Electric Lady in New York (Jimi Hendrix, Lady Gaga, Rosalìa) and studios in Paris... to taking part in the semi-finals of the Swiss Eurovision, Roze embraces the sound of now, and moved to London to write her forthcoming project. 2018 saw her release ‘Again’ which reached #23 in the UK’s Commercial Pop Charts, and #1 at Kings of Spins.

Past support from publications/blogs Notion, A&R Factory, Vents, also led to spins on specialist radio and DSP playlists (EQUAL, Fresh Finds). In 2022, May Roze released her debut EP “Heal,” and single ‘Mad’ featured on Love Island.

As recent milestones, May played the secret garden party festival 2023 and is lining up gigs and Sofar sound shows.

Will Foley is the 'BBC introducing artist to watch'. Will made his name in his home town of Colchester before moving to London to pursue music professionally. He plays all over London all the time and is growing a fan base from all of his live shows.

Will released his debut studio album in October 2023 titled 'Addicted to Chaos' featuring 10 songs. His songs feature very insightful lyrics that are matched to beautiful melodies and powerful guitar hooks to create songs that will stay with your soul!
