Normanton Street are a musical force based in Brighton (UK) consisting of Ned, Nicholson and Phoebe Freya. The band’s sound is lyrically focused with three distinct vocals, jazz influenced guitars, warm bass grooves and tight rhythmic drums.

Normanton Street have quickly amassed a following off musical prowess and a lot of hard work. They’ve played gigs and festivals across the UK, Europe and US, including France, Spain, Croatia, Belgium, Holland and Austin (Texas). As well as opening for high-profile artists like the legendary Talib Kweli and Mercury-nominated poet Kate Tempest. Meanwhile, Normanton Street’s success has made them favourites in Brighton, where the band resides. The band was selected as The Independent’s ‘New Music of the Week’. This momentum attracted attention from various booking agents and venues over in New York, where the band went on a trip and played four shows.

Normanton Street have achieved all this success in such a short space of time by releasing music on a label started by Ned and Nicholson, QM Records. Under the label they have released multiple Normanton Street EPs as well as a plethora of other talented artists. As QM Records, Ned and Nicholson regularly host music nights as well as DJ in Brighton and London showcasing upcoming talents.
