STORRY – “You Don’t Know Me (Nah Nah)”

Born in Toronto, this Canadian musical workaholic has been singing into a microphone since she was 2. Although initially influenced by Whitney and Mariah, she majored in classical voice at Vanier College and studied opera at the University Of Toronto. Doing a 180, she traveled the world to find her purpose, which would lead her back to music. She debuted with “Leave My Heart Behind” early this year.

Her new single combines a multitude of musical layers into one breathtaking soundscape. The highly funky rhythm, the R&B touches and the Motown-styled backing singers are the foundation, while she stacks some smooth bass guitar and exhilarating brass on top. And with her astounding soulful and jazzy-dippped vocals truly adding some magic, this is one rising star we would love to know.

Jordan Mackampa – “Under”

This London-based singer and songwriter with Congolese roots blends classic soulfulness with bits of folk, pop and gospel, creating a tasty auditory smoothie. Grown up with the legendary sounds of Marvin Gaye, Bill Whithers and Curtis Mayfield, he also finds inspiration from the music of BB King and Coldplay. He released his debut single “Same Faces” in 2016 and packed out European festival stages.

Bursting onto your eardrums with a funky rhythm, an acoustic guitar and his soul-dripping vocal artistry, his new single is an upbeat harmonic delight. Narrating the story about falling for someone you only met briefly on a train, his poetic lyricism coasts on the melodious waves, while the lush, enchanting backing vocals and the foot-tappin’ crescendo make this groove sound extraordinary.
