About this Event
GLXY
Shogun Audio // UK
Soul-drenched duo GLXY have become synonymous with a sonic palette coated in majestic melodies, luscious synth work, and pristine production. Since emerging in 2015, they have continued to go from strength to strength, consistently curating extremely authentic and detailed pieces of music that comfortably traverse moods, emotions, and even genres.
With both Tom and Jonathan having a background in music – clearly displaying itself in their sound, the duo initially began working together during their time at the University of Leicester. Signing exclusively to Shogun Audio in 2017, their single ‘Lucid’ grabbed the attention of BBC Radio 1 legend, Annie Mac, after receiving its radio premiere from Rene La Vice on the Drum and Bass show – he dubbed the track as a ‘baby maker’ which sums up the exuberant inviting tones in their production.
2020 saw GLXY release their debut album ‘Research & Development’. This first extended body of work, which included an outstanding collaboration with DRS in the form of ‘She Sings For Me’, cemented itself as a project defined by both its heavy emphasis on introspection and musicality.
They have since followed this up with the critically aclaimed “By Design”, “Fear, Ego” and “Love, Chaos” EPs across 2021-2023. In 2024 they’re set to continue this momentum with more releases and playing multiple festivals across the world, including; Hospitality on the Beach, Let It Roll and many many more.
