The Line up

John Motors
Hailing from London, we’ve transformed from an instrumental trio into a dynamic four-piece powerhouse, blending infectious funk and soulful melodies that ignite the dance floor. Over the years, we’ve pushed our creative boundaries, evolving our sound and welcoming the amazing Celia into our family. Her compelling vocals add a new dimension to our already vibrant music, making the experience truly unique.

I sing about race, love, identity, change and through all of these moments we have in life there is nothing more powerful than connection. This is why as an artist it is my priority to perform live.” Mica released her debut single ‘It’s like’ last November and her second single on 23rd January with her debut EP on the way in April 2026.
