Kai Reesu

Fresh From a breakthrough 2025, Scottish hip-hop and jazz collective Kai Reesu have established themselves as one of the UK's most exciting and enigmatic emerging live acts.

Their debut release, KOMPROMAT VOL. i, earned widespread critical acclaim, culminating in the Scottish Album of the Year Award 2025, alongside standout performances at Edinburgh Jazz & Blues Festival, Kelburn Garden Party, and nominations at the Scottish Jazz Awards.

Now entering 2026, the band return with a carefully selected run of UK performances while preparing the release of their highly anticipated sophomore album.

Positioned at the intersection of Scotland's underground hip-hop and jazz scenes, Kai Reesu continue to redefine both genres, blending conscious lyricism with expressive and intuitive musicianship.

India Blue

With her debut album recorded and scheduled for release in 2027, INDIA BLUE explores the boundless power of love, taking listeners on a journey through life’s hardships and toward the light that reveals itself through the cracks, illuminating paths to healing and growth.

Blending ambient neo-soul folk with the cinematic enchantment of fairytale-inspired strings, INDIA BLUE pushes beyond genre boundaries to create a unique sonic world, where a voice described by Clash as "heat rising from hot tarmac" drifts above lush arrangements and a dynamic rhythm section.
