KS MoreTime
KS MoreTime is a 22-year-old rapper from Croydon (London,UK) who is set to do big things in the UK Rap scene with some impressive achievements under his belt.
KS grew up part of a music-centric household with his parents who are of Jamaican heritage. Heavily exposed to Reggae, Dancehall, 90's Hip Hop and R&B during his early life, he also drew influence from early noughties Hip-Hop, Dance, Afroswing and UK Drill with artists such as Jay-Z, Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent, Fabolous, Lloyd Banks, Skrapz, Dave, Nines, Chip, Kyze and Tinchy Stryder all playing an integral part in the sound of his music today.
KS MoreTime got his first taste of life as a performing artist when he took part in various shows and plays during primary school. Fast forward to his early teens, KS then started creating his own music in a local community studio, which in turn led him to become involved in shows and talent competitions in his area.
Impressively, KS has performed in front of 5,000 people including Prince Harry for the 'Onside Awards' at The Royal Albert Hall at just 17-years-old (making him one of the youngest rappers to perform at the venue). KS has also taken part in numerous talent shows over the years such as Lottery 25's Talent Competition (3rd Place), OnSide's Talent Competition
(joint London winner) and 'Sky's The Limit Talent Competition'
(winner) amongst more.
Lois Brooks
Lois is a 14 year old singer songwriter from Blackpool.
She has been writing songs from being as young as 8 years old. She takes inspiration from a range of artists such as David Bowie, Depeche Mode, Billie Eilish & Lana Del Rey to name a few. In 2021 during lockdown, her school teacher suggested she entered the Song Academy Young Songwriter Competition. Lois made it through all the various stages and eventually went on to win the competition, with her original song "Girl in the Dress". She was invited to perform the winning song at a live showcase event in London, where the song gained significant critical acclaim. Since then her songwriting has gone from strength to strength, and has now released several songs which can be heard across all digital music platforms. More recently, she has again revisited the 2024 Song Academy competition with a another original composition titled, "Make It Go Slow" (which features on Coastal Breeze LIVE with Terry and during our Connected Artists slots), which amazingly made it through to the final 5.
Lois is an active participant on the local live music scene, gaining experience at open mic nights and other live music events. She has recently played at Coastal Radio DAB's 'Summer in the Square' festival, St Anne's Music Festival, and supported Kyle Passmore at
Lytham Hall.
Lucy That Sings
At 42 I've finally reached the point where I can release songs knowing that I'm writing and singing from life experience and that I simply couldn't have done them justice if I'd started any earlier... As well as being at exactly the right point where I know that I'm only going to live this life once so I'd better get on with it!
Songs that have been rumbling around in my head for up to 20 years are finally being let loose in the wild, starting with No Questions Now - a British soul kind of song about intuition and being in the love bubble of certainty where you don't need to ask questions. Right up until you do. It's a big song, with big feels.
Apparently I was singing before I could walk, and singing is in my blood. But it took a few life shifts before the right people at the right time were in place...
I've been a vocal troublemaker with We Are The Lost Boys
(rock and pop covers) and acoustic duo Elliott's Orchard for over 5 years and we play 40+ gigs a year around south Wales and Bristol.
Watch this space for releases from those band families,
they're coming ❤️
Lunar Paths
Do you remember the week towards the end of 2024 when Meta had a meltdown? We do, and at the time we were convinced that our socials were being hacked. It was a terrifying, stressful, punch in the gut sort of feeling: the fear that so much hard work could be callously dismantled and destroyed by forces unknown.
We took the necessary steps to protect ourselves, but as we were doing so, we couldn't help but notice how the language of cybersecurity sites was like a 'found poem', its topic the paranoid and perilous times in which we live.
It was then that Diane remembered the cybersecurity 'found poetry', and she dug out the things that she had jotted down:
Zero trust.
Are you safe?
Protect yourself.
Are you vulnerable?
Let us help you.
We want you to be safe.
Protect yourself.
Protect our community.
Are you vulnerable?
Help protect our world.
We value the effort.
We value the work.
We value the work.
Creating a safe environment for innovation.
Innovation.
Let us help you authenticate.
We want you to be safe.
We want you to be safe.
Let us help you attain a zero trust mentality.
