Song of the Day: Bite Me! – Amity

Once in a while, you get a musician that instantly COMMANDS your full attention and 18 year old AMITY is that musician. The South-London artist turned to music as a coping mechanism during lockdown – and the very thing that saved him from the bloom of the pandemic made him an overnight sensation.

Making his debut at age of 15, Amity immediately caught the attention from the likes of The Guardian and the BBC. Accolades came in quick succession as the ASBO Magazine-tipped artist was named the Royal Albert Hall’s official Future Maker Artist in 2023 and became winner of an RBE Musical Excellence Award. A resident artist at Soho’s iconic Spice of Life, Amity had sold out shows across the UK in 2024, gracing stages at The Great Escape, Brighton Pride’s Fabuloso in the Park and, of course, The Royal Albert Hall.

The whirlwind acclaim didn’t happen by chance – Amity is a breath of fresh air in today’s materialistic music industry. He uses music to pose thought-provoking questions, shedding light on difficult subjects, including mental health, abuse and suicide. Being queer, autistic, and trans, Amity could be described as a singing advocate as he also speaks up for those communities.

Now Amity is preparing to launch his debut EP, set for release later in the year. He gives a taste of his highly-anticipated project with title track, ‘Bite Me!’, which challenges societal conventions. The stunning piano led ballad, which could be easily mistaken for one of Adele’s hit ballads, sees Amity giving the proverbial two fingers at dogmatic thinking from religious hypocrisy to the rise of demagogues and the aftermath of abuse. Personally ‘Bit Me!’ really struck a chord when Amity bellows out: ‘your hands around my neck feels like home’. This powerful statement cuts to the raw truth of the things we yearn for can be damaging. In revealing his truth in such statements, Amity hopes to heal and empower others through music – just how music empowered him during lockdown.

‘Bite Me!’ is out available across various music platforms. Why not have a listen….

OUT TODAY: jem wax shares empowering single, ‘SPIDERRR’

JEM WAX‘s latest offering, ‘SPIDERRR’, was born from a recording session the London-based singer/producer had with multi-instrumentalist Natsuma and top-liner Emma Tea. During a lengthy and heartfelt session, the trio shared experiences of male privilege, power dynamics and personal growth.

Their shared experiences resulted in an audacious genre-bending cut with jem’s signature sung-spoken style firmly instilling strength, resilience and liberation, over a deep-guelling bass, which ran rampant through the production, with playful elements of jazz and hip-hop.

Commenting on the powerful track, who she produced with multi-instrumentalist Natsuma, jem said: “This song symbolises the power we have over our pasts. We can’t change what happened, but we can process how it affected us and make sure we don’t repeat mistakes. I want people to feel empowered, to have fun, and to dust off a few cobwebs after listening to the track. To me, ‘SPIDERRR’ is like Imagine Dragons meets auto-tune, meets UK Rap, meets Soul.’ 

A BBC Introducing favourite, jem’s dynamic vocals and lyricism, which radiates attitude and authenticity, have catapulted in the UK live music scene, earning her a sold-out headline show at Camden Chapel, plus a string of notable performances at The Strongroom, Piano Smithfield, and more recently, Servant Jazz Quarters.

As jem wax continues to be unapologetically herself, by blending elements of jazz, rap and pop to create a bold, genre-defying sound, she’s definitely the one to watch in 2025.

‘SPIDERRR’ is out today (13th February) via various music platforms. Why not listen below…
