One of the most unique sounding British groups, Normanton Street’s fresh sound combines potent lyrics with smooth jazz saxophone and distinctive vocals, with the result being something quite stunning.

A soul/hip hop group based in Brighton fronted by Ned, Nicholson & Phoebe. Their sound is lyrically focused with three distinct vocals, jazz influenced guitars, warm bass grooves, tight rhythmic drums and memorable saxophone melodies.
After a busy year of collaborations, headline shows, tours and high profile supports, Normanton Street show no sign of slowing down, with plans to branch out overseas in 2015, as well as their debut album release, due to drop in Autumn this year. The band has built quite a reputation for their live performances, playing over 75 shows last year, recently supporting legendary rapper Talib Kweli at The Haunt, Brighton and Mercury-nominated poet Kate Tempest in November 2014.
Normanton Street launched a new EP called Much Respect with a UK tour, playing in Nottingham, Leicester, Manchester, Sheffield and London. They finished the tour on the 31st of October with a show at the Haunt, Brighton in front of a 200+ crowd. Other highlights of the year include a storming performance at Love Supreme Festival back in July, playing 4 shows during Brighton’s Great Escape Festival, an appearance at Cheltenham Jazz Festival in May, and the band’s first tour of Wales in April, playing shows in Bangor, Cardiff and Newport.
