Fusing together Beatboxing, Live-Looping and Guitar, Fugitive Orchestra makes music best described as: Alternative Jazz-infused, Bluesy Hip-Pop; drawing inspiration from the likes of Andrew Bird, LCD Soundsystem, Talking Heads, Paul Simon, Kate Bush and the Blue Nile.

Having garnered support and airplay from BBC Introducing as well as several features on Tom Robinson's 'Fresh Faves' for BBC 6-Music, the release of Tomahawk Caress in early 2019 saw the addition of Politically-charged Alt-Funk to an already diverse palette of sounds, incorporating influences from classic funk to Vulfpeck and Childish Gambino. New single, The Price of Doubt sees an exploration of 80s-tinged Guitar-driven Pop as well as universal themes of self-doubt and the importance of self-belief amid a confusing world.

Fugitive Orchestra has supported the likes of Mr. B The Gentleman Rhymer, The Petebox, Jerry Williams, The Showhawk Duo, Miles Hunt & Erica Nockalls (The Wonder Stuff), shared a stage with early-naughties heroes Wheatus at the Isle of Wight Festival, and continues to take his exciting live show to ever-growing audiences.

Founded by sonic architect and explorer Robert Raths aka ghostworker in 2007, Erased Tapes is a truly independent record label that has disrupted the industry and rejuvenated the musical landscape. The London-based label has consistently nurtured genre-defying artists from all around the world without losing its avant-garde ethos.

2015 saw BBC 6 Music radio presenter Mary Anne Hobbs stage an Erased Tapes evening featuring Nils Frahm and A Winged Victory For The Sullen at the Royal Albert Hall as part of the prestigious BBC Prom. It was the fastest selling ticket of the entire season. Shortly after Erased Tapes was awarded Best Small Label 2015 at the AIM Awards.

On February 5th 2017 Erased Tapes opened the doors to its new East London home, marking the 10th anniversary by introducing fans and the public to the new Erased Tapes Sound Gallery.

“Ten years of one of the most important record labels of the last few years“ — Gilles Peterson

"Over the last decade, Robert Raths’ label Erased Tapes has developed a sonic profile perfectly in step with the growing taste for quiet, meditative works on the cusp of ambient and chamber music" — The Independent

“The heart-string-tugging London label that floats gently between 20th century composition and ambient music” — Rolling Stone

I hope to get some of these published one day.

Singer-songwriter Yellowlees was born from Pete Rapp stitching together heart, sleeve and rousing indie-folk spirit. Hailing from the UK’s South Coast by way of Norwich, Yellowlees sits somewhere between the yearning sensitivity of Noah Kahan and early Bon Iver, and the thrilling immediacy of Sam Fender and Hozier.

Now settled in London, Yellowlees has a knack of combining infectious, hooky melodies with honest, conversational wordplay and musical theatre-tinged harmonies. He has established himself as an unmissable live act thanks to magnetic, crowd-pleasing performances known for their passion-fuelled energy – 2022’s anthemic, heartfelt ‘Dispatches’ EP was launched with a triumphant, packed-out London headline show.

Supported by BBC Introducing and tastemakers alexrainbirdMusic, 2024 sees Yellowlees unleashing his best work yet, and promises to see him emerge as a standout amongst the UK’s singer-songwriter scene.
