MR BEWLAY-
“Bold and charismatic, an intoxicating charm blazes from the flamboyant powerhouse and emerging talent, that is Mr Bewlay.” Becky and the Bands
“There is no man more committed to the pursuit of staying relevant. A true pop star in the making!” Adam Walton
The UK Art Pop extraordinaire Mr Bewlay has established himself as the paramount voice for the unorthodox. Currently based in Cardiff, Bewlay’s upbringing was flamboyant with an early induction onto the stage. With ametuer dramatic performances of classics like West Side Story, A View From A Bridge and A Streetcar Named Desire Bewlay learnt the subtle intricacies of stage performance, a skill he brings with him to this day.
Beginning his musical career under the mentorship of the Forte Project, Bewlay has pushed himself into releasing his ‘Electric Reason’ Trilogy which saw him expand his sound with the addition of synth-heavy, funk grooves and sweet retro-inspired pop hits. In addition he has played sold out headliner shows in prestigious venues such as Porters, Queens Hall and Ill Repute. As a champion for LGBTQ activism he has also given talks and performed at Queer festivals and shows with the On Your Face Collective. Recently he has signed with Swnd Records and he is set to release his next wave of music with their backing.
With a breadth of sound ranging from retro-spiced pop, to quiet reflective solo pieces, Bewlay’s unpredictability is also found in his music. With influence coming from artists such as David Bowie, St Vincent and Parquet Courts, Bewlay remains in a lane of his own with bombastic vocals, extravagant style and lyrics of the utmost originality. There is little in his way towards inevitable ascension.
Be it Mista, Misses or King or Queen, they all fall under Bewlay’s everything.
Soup and Cigarettes-
This is Soup and Cigarettes, a modern 80s/indie 4-piece band. Consisting of Thomas Dalton on lead vocals, Harvey Norton on guitar, Hayden French on bass and Emily Evans on drums, Soup and Cigarettes' sound is reminiscent of 80s synth-based pop music.
UK DUTY PAID, Soup and Cigarettes first studio album was released in August 2022. An 8-track album consisting of synth-heavy songs and hints of chill indie-pop.
