ROMEO STODART

​

Romeo Stodart is the lead singer/songwriter in the much loved London based rock n roll harmony group The Magic Numbers. The band comprising of two pairs of brothers and sisters have released five critically acclaimed albums to date including their self-titled Mercury Music Prize nominated, million selling debut.

Outside of The Magic Numbers, Romeo has collaborated with a vast array of artists including writing songs for & with the late Jane Birkin, Edwyn Collins, Natalie Imbruglia, Kathryn Williams, Amadou & Mariam and The Chemical Brothers. He has contributed his unique guitar playing style to various projects, from Damon Albarn’s Africa Express collective since its inception, touring with Jimmy Webb & The Webb Brothers, to playing banjo, guitar & harmonies Spiritualized’s Sweet Heart Sweet Light album.

 

REN HARVIEU

​

Anyone who believes there are no second chances needs to be re-introduced to Ren Harvieu. Seven years after Through The Night, her Top Five debut album, having overcome a life-threatening injury on the eve of it’s release, the darkly enigmatic Salford-born singer-songwriter returned with the critically acclaimed Revel In The Drama (Bella Union) a brilliant, bolder and broader take on her unique pop classicism, a compelling diary of struggle, a release of pent-up tension and a celebration of liberation and survival. It should’ve been a celebration but as luck would again have it, the world went into a global pandemic on the week of release. Timing is everything but Ren Harvieu is timeless as she is inspirational.

​

Now in the production chair alongside her writing partner Romeo she is creating her most brave and compelling music yet, a new album is scheduled for release in early 2025.
