We say
Jacob Banks follows up RotD featured debut Kids On The Corner with another soulful delivery which looks set to propel the young artist to new heights. Taken from debut EP - The Monologue - Worthy has been played 20,000 times on Souncloud and downloaded 10,000 times. Zane Lowe championed the single his 'Next Hype', before seeing it added to the In New Music We Trust playlist. The crossover potential is highlighted with plays across the board on both Radio 1 and 2. Jacob also has a live session lined up on John Kennedy’s Xfm show, with 6 Music and 1Xtra also playing the 21-year-old's release. Media support is varied; from underground kings SBTV to commercial monoliths MSN, the plot at press is coming together very well indeed. Forthcoming tours with Laura Mvula and Emeli Sande should see his fanbase expand dramatically. Video.London gig: March 24, w/ Laura Mvula - Nobu W1; April 8, w/ Emeli Sande - Hammersmith Apollo W8; April 15, St Pancras Old Church (sold out)
