The Silhouettes Project is a new platform for up and coming Hip-Hop, Soul and Jazz artists from the UK. It is not a record label or management team, it is a community project with "A proper family vibe". The Silhouettes Project provides an open space - a recording studio and live venue (located within the Total Refreshment Centre in Hackney, London) - where MCs, singers, musicians and producers can connect and create.
Founded by community organisers & artists Asher Korner (aka Kosher) and Jaden Osei-Bonsu (aka Eerf Evil) in 2019 with the intention of shining a light on artists in the shadows, the name The Silhouettes Project was born. They say "We felt a joint frustration that the current music scene in the UK only had structures in place to support talent of a certain genre whilst overlooking a buzzing alternative Hip-Hop culture. We wanted to unify artists who are making ground-breaking music but who are in need of a solid structure to work within - artists who we felt deserved more recognition."
The Silhouettes Project's 15-track, self-titled LP released in 2020 showcases talent from the UK's thriving jazz, hip-hop, soul and RnB scene, with artists such as Kofi Stone, Summers Sons, Enny, KeepVibesNear, Manik MC, Lex Amor, Louis The Hippie, Summer-Pearl, Joe Beard and many more featuring on the project.
The Silhouettes Project will headline the Rich Mix stage on Saturday, 27th April, bringing through an incredible lineup of artists to support.
