Olivia Dean, Kali Uchis, Rose Gray: rising East London singer-songwriter Liv East shares the music she’s currently got On Repeat.
Nestling neatly within the wave of Neo-soul and R&B talent currently gushing into the London consensus, Liv East is reigning down a rich and dazzling effervescence with each passing drop. With the whiff of a debut album in the air later this year, East feels firmly planted in her approach, boasting an enchanting live set to accompany her textured, naturalistic musicality.
She’ll be bringing said live presence to W London’s AMPLIFIED music series, which returns this week (12th June) with an exclusive showcase of East’s talents. Taking place at The Perception Bar in Soho, the night promises to augment the incentive’s reputation for shining a light on the next generation of stars, guaranteeing a night of celebration and cascading sonics.
To celebrate, Wonderland asked East to share what she has had On Repeat of late.
Listen to her latest release…
Liv East is On Repeat…
Olivia Dean – Nice To Each Other”
Gorgeous. Bittersweet. Melancholy. Sunshine. This song makes me feel all the emotions. I must have played it about 50 times since yesterday alone.
Nyah Grace – “Only Mine”
A song for the girls….this will have you feeling like Venus herself.
Qendresa – “2 Much”
Smooth Funk. If you don’t know Qendresa you should get to know.
Payfone & KYD NEREIDA – “I Feel You”
Sexy & sleek…Payfone always deliver.
dublon & Deza – “Evolution”
My kinda jazz house. What a gem of a track…heard this on spotify radio a few months ago and been hooked ever since. Deza’s flow is smooth af.
Rose Gray – “Party People”
Summer 25’ ANTHEM. Fellow east Londoner Rose Gray ticking all my pop boxes with her new album.
AVA Lava & Makez – “Holy Sun”
A gem from my favourite Dutch duo, this song feels like warm sun on my skin. I’ve got a couple tracks with Makez dropping later this year which I can’t wait for the world to hear. Their musical talents are A1.
Ash Leone – “Terracotta Walls”
Discovered this artist on TikTok a few weeks ago and wow, i was blown away. Her tone is so rich and songwriting deep.
Kali Uchis – “Sunshine and Rain”
Kali blessed us with this one. Her philosophical lyrics over soulful retro sonic landscapes…she’s one of the best to do it. I listen to her on the daily.
Mariella – “Deja Vu”
Soft, soulful and heart wrenching. Mariella is one of my favourite up and coming UK artists. Her pen game is second to none.
