Niall Sexton is an unassuming Irish musical prodigy. He emanates a unique style of contemporary pop using an eclectic blend of electronic, soul and R&B music. Drawing on his own experiences, the talented songster writes powerful lyrics that supplement his spirited voice, extracting deep meaning and guidance through self-reflection which enhances the depth of his words with authenticity.

Niall discovered his voice rather bizarrely at the age of 14 while playing 'Call of Duty' on Xbox Live with a friend. In 2013, the Co. Derry native would go on to win a UK radio singing contest, securing him a supporting act with 3x Grammy winner Ne-Yo in Liverpool's Echo Arena in front of a sold-out 11,000 seater venue.

Sexton became renowned after being featured on 'The X Factor UK' in 2016, finishing in the top 6 boys category, amassing over 2.5 million YouTube views on his renditions and music covers combined. 

Boosted by all of this media attention, Niall proceeded to travel around the world alongside his 3 siblings, funded entirely from busking and has performed in notable cities including Melbourne, London & New York. The 'emerald-eyed' singer/songwriter is currently residing in Toronto, Canada where he continues to perform, absorbing influences from the multi-cultural and diverse music scene that surrounds him. 

In the coming months, with a continuation of single releases and a debut EP set to forge a fearless and unique aural, you can expect to hear the same deep-rooted, androgynous vocals that send shivers down your spine.
