29 May

Marmalade Presents: May 2026

Our May edition of Marmalade Presents brought together two exciting artists shaping distinct and deeply soulful sounds. Tessi Nandi captivated the room with her blend of nostalgic soul, R&B, and understated pop, delivering emotionally honest songwriting that felt both intimate and powerful.

Joining her was Tommy WÁ, whose fusion of Afro-inspired soundscapes, indie textures, and retro-soul brought warmth and depth to the night. Drawing from his West African roots and creative energy, his passionate performance left a lasting impression.

Huge thanks to everyone who came through and made the night so special. Relive the energy from the showcase below, and we can’t wait to welcome you back for more exciting artists at our monthly Marmalade Presents at The Ministry - next one 17th June, RSVP below!

From Sunrise to St Matthias Church with Mac Adams

Mac Adams has officially released his new single Sunrise! A soulful and emotionally raw reflection on love, trust, and the fragile space between comfort and uncertainty. Listen below!

And if you want to experience the songs live, tonight is your chance!! Mac takes over St Matthias Church, Stoke Newington for his biggest headline show to date, featuring a full live band, a 16-person choir arrangement, and some very special guests (cough cough Ruti). Doors open at 7PM, Mac is on at 8PM, and there are still a few tickets left - grab yours below and we’ll see you this evening!

The Great Escape & Brighton, thank you!

This year’s Great Escape was a special one. Across two days of showcases, conversations, networking, and late-night moments, H.O.M.E, BSI Merch & Artist Services, and Marmalade brought The H.O.M.E Hub to life by creating a space where artists, creatives, and industry could genuinely connect beyond the chaos of the festival.

A huge thank you to everyone who came through, supported, performed, collaborated, and shared the space with us. From unforgettable sets by EMNW, Mulimba, Parlay, Mac Adams, THE YAZ BAND, and Still Pigeon, to all the conversations and connections made throughout the week! The energy in Brighton reminded us exactly why community matters so much!

We’re grateful to our partners and sponsors MNGR, and Prager Metis for helping make it all possible.

Until the next one!!

Honest, emotional, and painfully relatable, the track captures the quiet insecurity that builds when you start questioning whether the person you love is really meant for you.

Georgia’s next single, 2 YEARS (ANOTHER GOODBYE), drops on 5th June! A reflective and vulnerable look at the end of a long-term relationship and the difficult questions that follow once it’s over. Pre-save it below and stay tuned for the full album next month!

THE YAZ BAND enter a new chapter

THE YAZ BAND have returned with their new single Shallows, a hopeful indie-pop track about stepping into the unknown, trusting yourself, and realising how far you’ve already come. Warm, emotional, and full of heart, the release continues to build the world the duo are quickly becoming known for.

A real bucket-list moment for THE YAZ BADN when they had the privilege of performing at TEDxLondonBusinessSchool. The performance is now live on YouTube, check it out here.

And there’s even more to come!! The guys have just announced their biggest headline show yet at The Lexington, London, on 1st August. Tickets are on sale now via the link below!

rallycap’s debut EP ‘fl baby’ arrives 5th June

Following the release of strangers, a reflective indie-pop single exploring loneliness, connection, and the quiet struggles we all carry, rallycap now prepares to release his debut EP ‘fl baby’ on 5th June.

Across five tracks, the project traces the emotional journey of a young artist navigating identity, home, healing, and growth. From confronting buried childhood pain to learning how to build something meaningful with the people around him, the EP introduces rallycap as an artist unafraid to be vulnerable, honest, and deeply human.
