LTtheMonk / Calzy / The Veltmans / Nomad

LTtheMonk

Originally from London, UK, and now living in Toronto, Canada, LTtheMonk first fell in love with hip-hop at just eight years old, when the music captivated his young ears and ignited what would become a lifelong passion. Blended with constant exposure to reggae (via his Jamaican mother) and rock (via his Irish father), LT’s adventurous love of music and performing onstage would only grow stronger.


That eclectic musical upbringing, coupled with discovering the music of Michael Jackson and becoming obsessed with the pop icon’s music and dancing in parallel with his foundational hip hop exposure, set LT off on a journey to becoming a musician himself. It’s also an intrinsic part of LT’s toolkit, with bantamweight Gene Kelly-meets-James Brown footwork and immaculate sport socks both indelible signatures of his persona as an entertainer. 

You can see all of these influences in LT's latest musical releases, in songs such as 'Class Of '23' and 'The Lo', which are currently available on all streaming platforms. And you can learn more about LT's life as a musician and dancer by following him on TikTok, Instagram and Twitter, @ltthemonk. 

Calzy

A true perfectionist at heart, Calzy finally dropped his debut single "Conversations" in December 2021 after major doubts about how people would perceive his music and perceive him.

Born in Eastbourne, England, Calzy was forever singing the house down, and ever since he could remember, he would spend his time creating his own music as he discovered the creative possibilities involved. Inspired by artists such as Logic and Mac Miller, Calzy focuses his lyrics on having deep underlying meanings behind them in order for him to successfully portray himself, his thoughts and goals to his listeners, with the intention of supplying a raw relaxing aura for everybody to enjoy.

His debut single "Conversations" brought in huge success, being streamed in 80+ countries worldwide and hitting over 5k streams collectively, allowing him to build the foundations of an incredible fanbase from around the globe. In 2022 he has since dropped "You" and "Yesterday's Tomorrow", which have both held their ground and collected over 3.5k streams between the pair worldwide. Calzy is starting to establish himself in the rap game and this is only the start; the sky's the limit for this talented prodigy.

The Veltmans

Eastbourne lads The Veltmans use punchy guitar tones and blues-inspired licks to create an exciting new sound reminiscent of indie bands of the 2000s. Expect harsh solos over floaty shoegaze chords and ear-lurching rhythms.

Nomad

Taking versatility to the next level, Nomad plans to show the world just how much he is capable of with his unique and artistic skills in music. He is constantly proving the industry wrong, showing other artists that you do not need to stick to only one genre of music if you do not wish to do so.

Growing up with a mix of English and Caribbean descent, Nomad grew to love all different styles of music. He particularly fell in love with hip-hop and in 2018, he decided to start creating his own music. He started off with short freestyles and would eventually write his very first song which he would release in December 2018. Unfortunately, the song did not do well and received terrible reviews. 

Following the criticism, Nomad told himself that he would take as much time as he needed to master his craft. He started taking singing lessons and studying his idols, such as Kanye West, Post Malone & Eminem. Quickly he became comfortable at writing unique music that everyone can enjoy. Nomad finds it particularly hard to indulge in just one thing at a time. So fortunately for his music, the type of songs he’ll create will always be changing. One day he could create a slow sung ballad, and the next a fast lyrical rap song that’ll get a crowd jumping. 

Nomad’s main mission in his career is to create a legacy through many different genres. Whether you enjoy R&B, hip-hop, pop or house music, he has a song for you!
