Michelle Nova is a London-based singer, songwriter, dj & all-round musical witch. Her music is a culmination of her love for pop music in the form of captivating melodies & story telling, and her love for the dance floor, coming through choppy, tribal, dance-driven drum beats & fat bass lines. We hope you love her debut EP, Bodyluv.

The most prolific band in history. 3 EPs in 6 years. And about 6 gigs (it's a once a year thing). 

Quality, not quantity.

We are a four-piece female indie/rock band from South London &amp; Surrey suburbs. We have been playing together since 2008 and came together through meeting up on courses at Realistic Rock Academy in Epsom. We've played lots of gigs in and around London. Influences are wide and varied and range from Nirvana, Green Day, Joy Division, old skool new wave such as Blondie, Jam to modern punk stuff like Blink 182 and the Vaccines.



A random collection of musical ventures that I am involved with. From my own singer-songwriter songs to more instrumental tracks, plus other songs done by other singers or bands I have been involved with.

My week is divided up into musician/engineer/ tutor/youth worker slices in one big exciting cake. I offer private guitar lessons and also run a tuition agency.

Starting out as an accompanying band to lead singer Matt Wright’s solo song-writing, King Compass formed after the group met at university, drawn to each other’s creative innovation. With the strongest influences being between soul and folk, the group’s mesh of playing styles work together to create a unique and hypnotic sound. After a year of gigging, the group begun work on their first release – the EP ‘Contours.’ Fellow university student James Ratcliffe took to producing the EP, and, after exciting contributions to instrumentation & ideas, became a full member of the band.

Now in their second year of performing together, the band’s soulful and ‘dreamy’ sound has developed to become more polished and striking, with tracks such as ‘Frozen Ocean’ being driven by ethereal vocals at the start, then ending in a wall-of-sound crescendo, hinting towards influences such as Bon Iver. ‘Bad Blood’ builds an ambient soundscape with choral harmonies and picked guitar, backseat-driven by synth bass and e-bow swoops. 'There's A Place' is the most ethereal of the three; with it's soundscape - like form, it almost acts as a theme song for the King Compass universe. The EP is surrounded by concepts of adventure, with intricate lyrics contemplating day-to-day life in vibrant poetic imagery. The cover & title are inspired by the idea that everyone has a world of information and beauty inside them, making them their own landscape.

The EP launch party took place on 11th Feb in the venue Lumiere. The event sold out, and was the first chance to demonstrate the evolution of the band's sound.

Having built up interest in the London scene, King Compass hope to further extend their audience with more equally exciting events throughout the year, with the EP being their first release to date.

Inspirations: Bon Iver, Lianne La Havas, Radiohead, Haitus Kaiyote
