Velvet-Club Connecting Lesbians & Bi-women around the World
A night of original music from London's most up and coming LGBTQ+ singer/songwriters and emerging pop artists hosted by Conleth Kane. Featured artists include: Lostchild - a London based gay singer/songwriter and producer, specialising in his own brand of emotionally charged retro-pop. Heavily influenced by 80s Madonna, and the angsty pop of Robyn and The 1975, Lostchild sings reflective and often dramatic songs about being a queer person overcoming issues such as addiction and depression. Since his first single release in 2016, Lostchild has supported pop icons such as Todrick Hall, Betty Who, Frankmusik as well as performing a US Pride tour in 2019. On his latest album Lostsongs, Lostchild writes a love letter to pop music of the 90s and 00s that he grew up with, with 7 sparkling pop covers and 1 heartfelt original, the single Just One Night. Delivering brutally honest messages in euphoric pop song sized packages, anyone who feels like an outsider has a home in Lostchilds music. Robbie Zereka - an Irish electro-pop performer, songwriter and producer based in London. Robbie uses music to make statements about modern living while delivering joyful, danceable tunes! The Chris Brogan remix of Robbies track Girl has enjoyed success on the Beatport Dance Charts and has been played at clubs across the UK including London's iconic Ministry of Sound club. Valerio Lysander - a chamber pop singer/songwriter. Based in London but originally from Italy, Valerio has built his career in the UK and abroad, performing in England, Scotland, Italy, France, Germany, Norway, the Netherlands and Hungary. In 2016 he was among the 10 nominees for Best Male in the Best of British Unsigned Awards and Ryan, new single released in the same year, was broadcasted by BBC Introducing. In 2017 he was among the finalists of the Coffee Music Project and Prides Got Talent, and performed in Trafalgar Square for Pride in London and on the main stage of Manchester Pride. In 2018 he successfully founded a new album with a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter. Many songs from the album, titled We Are Like Coloured Moths Towards The Sunlight and released on 21st July 2018, were broadcasted on BBC Radio, including If You Were Me You Would Be, a song about the hardship of being a musician in modern society. In 2019 he released his new EP When the Clouds Will Gather I Will Drink the Rain and is now recording a new album. Conleth Kane - described by OK Magazine! as 'the breath of fresh air we all need right now' and QX Magazine as "an infectiously energetic, refreshingly cheerful Singer/Songwriter, Conleth Kane recorded his debut album 'Proud - Live in London' at a sold out show at The Crazy Coqs in London's West End in Oct 2018 seeing him shoot to Number 2 on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter Charts in Feb 2019.
