HOT PLASTIC MOON (Demo)

Sometimes, a song comes together quickly with a sense of familiarity. In my experience, it is these songs that infectiously delight. 'It Starts Again' premiered on BBC 6 Music, has been described as "a moment, a buzz, similar to the likes of Arab Strap 'First Big Weekend' or 'Public Service Broadcasting ' where moreish energy paired with an understated spoken word vocal captivates and embraces".


A prelude to an EP. Four songs perpetuating the struggle against the frustrating lack of visibility and significant barriers faced by disabled musicians.

Lunch Break

Ronin is the 5th Single release by Re:O. This high energy, blood pumping and aggressive metal anthem combines Metal with dark pop, J pop influences and dissonance that would get any fan of  Metal, Metalcore, Nu Metal, Post-hardcore and Rock moving and headbanging. This song would suit any playlist within the genres mentioned.  

Ronin’ lyrics describe being betrayed by those closest to you and forging your new path with revitalized meaning and proving those who betrayed your trust wrong. Ronin explores the crippling self doubt and self immolation that afflicts us after being betrayed by those we trust and look up to. It then explores the exhilarating emotions of self discovery, finding a sense of belonging and confidence. This story is captivated using the imagery of a masterless samurai - The Ronin. This emotional journey is captivated utilizing a mixture of Japanese and English spoken lyrics, aggressive catchy guitar riffs with eccentric beautiful synth, vocal melodies and dissonance to create a Metal anthem that perfectly emulates the feeling of being lost within yourself and then the journey of self discovery and awakening that will leave you wanting more.

Make Your Mind Up

Hotel Room

I stopped on a quiet lane
In the heart of Inverness
Rain tapped the window pane
Stillness filled my chest
At Dalvey’s shop for gentlemen
Where silver treasures shine within
One small thing caught my eye —
A compass I could not pass by

Dalvey, please, please
Carry my heart
Across the big blue sea,
across the dark
In stainless steel,
a work of art
You give direction to
The human heart
One does not know
when it begins
Some great love stories
Are between just friends

No letters sealed with thread
No words were left unsaid
No dancing in the dark
No messy entangled heart
But still, it always felt like fate
To meet and not come too late
To know you then, to know you still
You hold a space — you always will

Dalvey, please, please
Carry my heart
Across the big blue sea,
across the dark
In stainless steel,
a work of art
You give direction to
The human heart
One does not know
when it begins
Some great love stories
Are between just friends

Dalvey, Please

Tonia is an alt-pop artist who weaves soul-stirring tales of love, self worth, friendship and navigating life in your twenties. Candid lyrics double up as anthemic hooks amidst a backdrop of fuzzy guitars, crisp harmonies, and a patchwork of production nuances. Since moving to Liverpool, Tonia has taken the city by storm as one of LIMF Academy’s “Most Ready” artists, and as part of independent label 3Beat’s roster. BBC Radio 1, BBC 1xtra and BBC Introducing hosts have praised Tonia’s ability to create “moments of sunshine and warmth”, which also charmed audiences at Kendal Calling, Dot To Dot Festival, The Cavern Club and on tour supporting NYC’s Say She She.

Tonia’s next single ‘Cut The Cloth, Didn’t I’ is set for release on the 19th March 2025, the next statement hit on Tonia’s limitless upward trajectory.

Electronica with a soul. Funky darkness with a heavy dose of melody and a film quote or two.
