We have added all tracks to the ‘cene #KeepitKent Spotify Playlist HERE
REBECCA GARTON - COMFORTABLE (FT. JEREMIH)
Working with Chicago-based R&B monster Jeremih, Sidcup siren Rebecca Garton is continuing to light fires in the UK R&B scene with another track that has the polish and poise of an artist well beyond Rebecca’s years.
Signed last year to a Universal Records sub label, the singer has created a groove that has your fingers clicking to the sexy beat and ultra smooth vocals. ‘Comfortable’ should be on any R&B fan’s ‘Must Listen’ list right now.
M DOT R - BOSS
Sheppey dancehall megastar M Dot R has returned with the brooding and bass-filled track ‘Boss’.
Always brilliant at creating a narrative, M Dot R’s distinctive vocals sit over a catchy hook to tell a story of relationship complexity.
Beyond that, it’s just another really addictive tune that we have come to expect from the man who as carved his own niche in the UK scene.

LITTLE SUSPICIONS - WASTING ALL MY TIME
Emerging indie-rock quartet Little Suspicions have released their symphonic debut, ‘Wasting All My Time’.
Reminiscent of the likes of The Last Shadow Puppets, Little Suspicions combine sweeping guitars with euphoric melodies and tranquil harmonies in order to create a sound that is undeniably charming.
Talking about the single, the band say: “it's about trying to pursue people who lead you on, so you hang onto their every word and wait around for them. All the time you think it’s a goer but they just parr you off and you’re basically just an ego boost.”
Little Suspicions originally formed in Tonbridge, where Conor Toner (guitar) and Joey Lyon (drums) worked at a school. In 2020, they were joined by vocalist Moritz Meyns and Craig Barden (bass), formerly of The Gallery’s.
THE NEW CONSISTENT - TURN OFF ALL THE SCREENS, FT. LADY BIRD & CHARLOTTE LENNON
Wow. What to say. Beautifully created by Midlands musician The New Consistent, ‘Turn Off All The Screens’ resonates with the world right now. Incredibly personal lyrics form the arc of the narrative arrow before it hits home with the angelic vocals of Charlotte Lennon.
TW punks Lady Bird lend their punchy expertise in social commentary with some hard hitting thoughts on the county as we know it now. Brilliant.
