Ama Lou – The Silence Tour

London-based singer and songwriter Ama Lou is known for her textural brand of R&B, blending garage, drill, and neo-soul elements into her own distinctive sound.

This led to her 2019 major-label debut, Ama Who? (featuring the single "Northside"), and 2021's At Least We Have This, both of which showcased her mature, stylistically varied aesthetic. I Came Home Late, her debut album, arrived in 2023.

Tortured Soul

Tortured Soul is 100% live modern, deep, soulful, house music freed from the DJ Booth. Influenced by the classic songcraft of Prince, Heatwave, and Kool & The Gang, Tortured Soul is a collective of incredible international musicians united under a groove-centered rhythm.

Frontman and songwriter, John-Christian Urich, leads the group while simultaneously drumming and singing with effortless mastery. Likened to "The Roots of House Music", Tortured Soul’s sound is reminiscent of Neo-Soul groups like Jamiroquai or Brand New Heavies, while also being influenced by the contemporary freshness of House purveyors like Dave Lee and Louie Vega, and Nu Disco artists like Soul Clap and Purple Disco Machine.

With their latest release, “Your Body Doesn’t Lie”, Tortured Soul ponders the search for happiness and the sometimes-messy journey to finding it. The single offers listeners two amazing remixes from South African DJ/producer Fka Mash, and British DJ/producer Atjazz.
