On the heels of placement in BBC Radio 1’s Sound Of 2024 list, British R&B/soul star Elmiene has inked a publishing deal with Tim & Danny Music and Warner Chappell Music U.K.
The 22-year-old Oxford, England, native was discovered online singing covers and had a breakthrough with the 2021 song "Golden." Late fashion designer Virgil Abloh used the track in his final Louis Vuitton show.
Elmiene has also collaborated with Justin Timberlake, Timbaland, Stormzy and BADBADNOTGOOD and performed at the U.K.'s Glastonbury Festival in 2023. His releases to date include the EPs EL-MEAN and Marking My Time.
"The pen is my most valued weapon, and the publisher helps me sharpen it," said Elmiene. "Extremely thankful to Tim & Danny and Warner Chappell.” Added Tim & Danny Music Co-Founder Tim Blacksmith, "He exemplifies all the qualities I look for in an artist, songwriter and creative.”
Said WCM A&R honchors Amber Davis and Xavier Champagne, “It’s rare to find a voice as powerful as Elmiene’s. His music travels from R&B, soul and spoken word so effortlessly, and his authentic nature and good heart genuinely come to life in his songs."
