The Smokehouse Presents hip hop, R&B, soul duo Children Of Zeus at The Baths in Ipswich on Friday 9th December.
Children of Zeus is a soul project from two of Manchester’s most respected artists Konny Kon & Tyler Daley. Konny Kon is a DJ, MC and beatmaker best known as one third of Broke’N’English alongside fellow Mancunians DRS and Strategy. Tyler Daley, also known as Hoodman went from being a respected MC and actor to one of the most in demand soul singers of recent times, lending his vocals and writing credits to music from Goldie, LSB, Soul II Soul‘s Caron Wheeler, Lenzman, Lisa Mafia, Bugsy Malone, and more.
Whilst the likes of Dub Phizix, Chimpo, Zed Bias and Levelz are making waves in D&B, Bass Music and Grime, Children of Zeus came to break the trend and bring a soulful side that is much needed to continue Manchester’s rich musical history. Over the last couple of years the duo have been releasing tracks through First Word Records and their soundcloud page generating daytime radio play and legions of devoted fans.Expect more classic soul food for the hip hop generation very soon!
Support from Maya Law and Kelci.
It’s no secret that Maya Law has a voice and songwriting ability far beyond her years on the planet. Raised in the spacious quiet of Norfolk, Maya has created an expansive sound to match - one that warmly invites you alongside as she navigates life as a queer woman, encounters heartbreak and offers refreshingly candid snapshots into her own mental wellbeing.
Support comes from Kelcy Ncube, professionally known as Kelci. She is a rapper from Ipswich, also known as the 'Queen of Suffolk'. Kelci mainly creates Drill and Hip hop songs.
In between the live music Angelle Joseph will be spinning a selection of R&B and Rap from the UK and beyond from Sinead Harnett to Ella Mai to Giveon and Lucky Daye.
