AK PATTERSON is a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist based in London. She writes gritty and honest songs that delve into deep subjects such as loneliness, grief and heartbreak to find the beauty and hope within them.
Her songs tell the stories of the underdog or characters on the fringes of society such as factory workers or prisoners. At the heart of every performance is her dynamic voice and emotional intensity with which she sings, earning her the reputation of ‘a soulful torch singer’ and ‘having sold her soul to the devil back at the crossroads’.
Mezanmi (pronounced 'mes amis') is the solo project of composer and songwriter, Fran O'Hanlon. Mezanmi's debut album, 'Always Upwards', was released in November 2024, combining electronic, folk and contemporary classical influences and guest collaborations with Sandrayati, Kieran Brunt (Shards) and Academy Award and Mercury-nominated actor and musician, Jessie Buckley. Having previously released music under the name AJIMAL, O'Hanlon released two critically acclaimed albums and was selected as one of the winners of the Glastonbury Emerging Talent Competition in 2020.
