Tell Me The Truth

House of EL

Wunderkind Recordings

WE SAY

House of EL is the alias of Northampton-based writer, producer, jazz musician and artist Kieron McIntosh. We first featured him earlier this year with the gorgeous track ‘Electric’ from his ‘When It Rains It Pours’ EP. Since then, he has had a UK Top 5 hit as co-writer and producer of Becky Hill’s ‘Disconnect’ and has landed a sync on Lancôme’s most recent campaign featuring Zendaya with his 2018 track ‘Elijah’. Having been championed by Colors, Clash, Complex, Trench, Wonderland, Notion, 6 Music and BBC Radio 1, House of El dropped this fusion of jazzy guitar motifs harmoniously interwoven with velvety drum rhythms and those warm, soulful vocals. This woozy jammer is perfect for soul-tinged pop playlists at DSPs and spins on Radio 1, 1Xtra, and Capital Xtra. He’s currently supporting Reuben James on tour and we can’t wait to hear what’s next from this talented artist.
