Naomi Campbell

“a sound that is as honey-sweet as it is transporting” - Hot Press

With a soulful blend of storytelling and melody, Naomi Campbell combines a hybrid of genres in her music. Known for her dynamic and evocative vocals, she has enjoyed quite the evolution in the past few years from her Irish roots of Folk and Americana to a wider Soul and R&B sound. 

After releasing her debut single Tuesday’s News ("a sobering yet life- affirming slice of acoustic folk” - Liverpool noise) in March 2024, Naomi has since supported touring artists from the UK, Ireland and the US such as Chris Helme (The Seahorses), John Calvin Abney, Campbell/Jensen, Chloe Foy, Muireann Bradley and Rachel Croft.

The soulful ballad ‘Don't You Mind’ (“a sound that is as honey-sweet as it is transporting” - Hot Press) followed in November, alongside a live version recorded at the world renowned Sun Studio in Memphis. Naomi has since gained over 25k streams on Spotify, received positive reviews from Earmilk and CLOUT magazine and was named a contender for best newcomer in Music Republic Magazine. 2025 continued to pick up momentum after Naomi teamed up with UK Indie label Frictionless Records to release Remembering in March, with a live session debut on BBC Radio Merseyside.

Naomi’s momentum shows no sign of slowing after the release of her latest single Naturall(as heard on Radio X) in Autumn, which also marked the beginning of recording sessions for Naomi’s much anticipated debut EP which will be released in 2026 coinciding with a string of live dates across the UK and Ireland in May/June. 

The first single from the EP, The Cottage, will be released on 10th April, ahead of an acoustic set at Union Chapel, London, opening for MT Jones on the 24th April.

DAVID MURPHY

David Murphy takes the pedal steel guitar outside the confines of its traditional roots with frequent ventures into a range of genres, spanning Americana and folk to ambient, experimental music and film soundtracks. His debut album ‘Cuimhne Ghlinn: Explorations in Irish Music for Pedal Steel Guitar’ takes it to a new place in contemporary Irish music. His all-instrumental debut recasts ancient Irish harp tunes and historic airs into the 21st century with the swelling, expressive and mournful sounds of the pedal steel guitar. This continues Murphy’s quest to expand the vocabulary of the instrument, taking it deeper into a world much closer to home and, for the very first time, present it in a modern Irish framework.

"Irish traditional rendered ghostly by washes of pedal steel and almost subliminal piano... widescreen and structured, like an early Celtic Ólafur Arnalds... 8/10"
