Mega: Momentum
North London soulster Mega loved singing from a very early age but was sidelined with vocal problems early on in her career. From that moment, she vowed that if her voice came back she would show her stripped back vunerable self that she was once so afraid of.
Drawing on influences such India Arie, Amy Winehouse and Chaka Khan, her brand of acoustic soul and RnB has already resonated with audiences in the UK. Her first single Chariot has nearly 4.5m streams on spotify, had several plays at radio, and also generated an Apple TV sync.
Mega has been working on new material for the last 12 months and will be releasing a new single ‘Let Me Let You Go’ through Believe Digital in August. A follow up single and also a 4 track EP will be released in October, including a track co-written with Maverick Sabre.
Receiving support from the Momentum Fund has been amazing for Mega. In tandem with a distribution deal through Believe Digital, the Momentum Award will help Mega to fund a marketing, PR, and radio campaign on her debut EP titled ‘New Light’. Specifically, the funding will also help to finance a bridging single in December which will set the campaign up for an Album to come in 2021.
“I am so grateful to have received the Momentum fund and feel blessed to have a team of people around me who believe in my vision.” – Mega
