KOKO Amplify Presents: Keepvibesnear & Friends

Alongside some friends and amazing talent, alt-R&B artist KVN brings a night of vibes to The House of KOKO.

Blessed with an unmistakable voice, and a natural talent for creating a world of introspective & emotive left field alt R&B he’s always loved (if we can even call it that) 

With the theme of troubled love running through the river of KVN’s story he brings a refreshing vulnerability to his music challenging the norms of masculinity and the modern man.

Romford-raised , East London-based artist KeepVibesNear is ready to bring a bright bit of colour to his catalogue with his upcoming releases. 

Kwoli Black

Hackney raised MC/poet Kwoli Black is often praised for his genre blending approach to music. At times he tugs at heart strings with R&B leaning soft spoken raps, whilst also being able to channel electric energy through grime flows and heavy hip hop beats. With every bar comes truth, and every truth comes an opportunity for fans to uncover more about the eclectic rapper who strives to challenge and shift the expectations of UK Rap. 

Jay Lewn

Jay Lewn has a diverse background from classical music to Abbey Road engineering to a chemistry degree. The London-based artist and producer is pioneering a new sound as he creates records that take influence from R&B, Pop and Funk. Jay’s ability to blend Pop-sensibilities with genre fluid sonics has continued to turn heads in the industry since his tasteful and critically acclaimed EPs ‘LOVERBOY’ & ‘FORM 01’.

Bethannie Hare

Bethannie Hare has been immersed in music for as long as she can remember. Raised in Leeds with jazz classics on repeat, she’s always been drawn to storytelling through song. Her early love of performing saw her putting on shows wherever she could. Now based in London, she brings with her a notebook full of lyrics, a head full of melodies, and a deep commitment to making honest, soulful music. Her debut single Minds Under My Skin is a self-written, co-produced track that blends vulnerability with strength, offering a glimpse into the emotional honesty that drives her work.
