+ special guests:Ashaine White
As TheHalfwayKid, British-Sudanese singer and songwriter Saeed Gadir makes music for communing, and finds himself in the midst of a new folk tradition — one that he’s writing in real time. Support from Jack Saunders and Sian Eleri at Radio 1, Steve Lamaqc at 6 Music and John Kennedy at Radio X. Two recent viral videos on Instagram (hereandhere) gained 2.4 million and 1.7 million views respectively which resulted in a 1000% increase in Spotify streams and a 250% increase in Spotify followers. First artist signed to the paradigm shifting FAN deal as featured inMusicweek. After 4 sold out headline shows in 2023 he recently sold out his 5th and biggest headline show to date at London's Bush Hall (450 capacity). At Radio X new single "Depressed with an Accent" was named as Record of the Week by John Kennedy and has also been added to the X-Posure List.Ashaine White strives to be ‘alternative’ in the purest sense of the word. Putting it simply, “I want my music to represent me being myself” she says. To her, as a young Black woman in music, that mindset isn’t defined by a specific hairstyle, or the makeup she wears or even restricting the sonics of the music she creates to fit neatly within any one subculture. Instead, her dream is to connect people to themselves through her music, and do so by existing as freely and authentically as she possibly can.
