The first British signing to Motown Records UK, Peckham-raised Tara Lily has earned her place at the table with an ambitious fusion of jazz and R&B. “It’s a hard thing to watch happen to your own area when you’re not someone who has benefited,” she says. Lily has lived in Peckham her entire life, having walked only ten minutes from the council flat she was born and raised in. Her Scottish mother and Bangladeshi father ran away together from the impossibility of their opposing worlds and built themselves a life where diversity was the very fabric of its community. “Financially, I’m one of the people that has still not benefited. It’s been a strange, sad thing to see. I mean, I’ve seen good things come from it – obviously, there is more of an arts community culture here now, but I think that’s going to go,” she says matter-of-factly, “because a lot of those people probably won’t be able to afford to stay for much longer.” The first thing you should know about Lily is she isn’t in the business of serving truths with a spoonful of sugar: realities are a bitter pill to swallow, and facts are cold. It’s easy to forget she is 22 years old when her air of world-weary confidence, of knowing too much too soon, belies her age. Her agemates in her position, as an artist signed to a label on the cusp of making their first, definitive statement, are often bewildered by their newfound success that feels like a result of chance rather than calculation. But not Tara Lily. When I ask her if she feels a pang of imposter syndrome, she says simply: “No. I feel like I deserve all of it.” And it’s with good reason: “I think some people feel like they just got lucky, but I’ve not really got lucky at all. I’ve done the work to get to this position.” What you’re listening to is the final incarnation of a sound Lily has been shaping for many years. It’s covered with the fingerprints of circumstance and birth right, from growing up in Peckham born to two musicians from contrasting cultures, to immersing herself in the grime scene as a teenager and then stepping out, alone, to cut her teeth in the jazz world. It’s a sound that is both modern and timeless. “It has that kind of feel to it, doesn’t it?” she smiles. After the meteoric success of her Jammer-produced debut single “Who Saw Who”, which blended traditional jazz standard progressions, harmonies and horns with sharp grime beats and double-time rhythms, Lily vanished for three years. She disappeared first of all to become a woman, to be acquainted with love and loss, and second of all, because she lost her voice – in more ways than one. More than an EP, these five tracks she has plucked from her repertoire are the telling of her own coming-of-age story. It should come as no surprise that Lily found her home with Motown Records UK, with the distinction of being their first British signee. She’s come a long way from being the angry young girl who felt like she didn’t belong. “I feel like I’ve always had to work harder than everyone else because I don’t have my family to fall back on. I don’t have anything to fall back on,” she says. “I’ve always said that people who own their own property always have a house to depend on, and I don’t. That’s always been something that has pushed me to make sure that I have my own career, to make sure I can make my own money and support myself and my family.” Everything she does is underpinned by a need to survive and overcome, and it’s reflected in her steely, uncompromising gaze down to her posture that means she never shrinks - always asserts. Her ambition for her music is, of course, global. She wants her music to take her places, and she leaves very little doubt that this isn’t a wish, but a game plan. Just like the Nina Simone records she grew up exalting, Tara Lily doesn’t want to just create music, but theatre, aiming to convey a storm of feeling in a matter of minutes. “I want to be seen as a credible artist who makes interesting music that people connect to,” she says simply. Weaving through her city across five songs, spanning almost five years of experience, Tara Lily was once lost, but now she is found.

“The people I meet on the streets all over the world, they write my songs. Their stories are my lyrics”, says Javier Manik. The singer and songwriter was born in Ascuncion (Paraguay), grew up in Buenos Aires (Argentina) and experienced very early in life that it takes more than money to be happy and content. He spent his childhood and youth in the ghettos of Buenos Aires with a mother who was only 15 years old when Javier was born not knowing who is father was. “It was a tough life but I was a happy boy”, the 42-year-old looks back on this time. In those days music was already a very important part of his life: “I always loved to sing to express myself. I never went to a music school and I didn’t know much about technique, but I felt the music and I played with all my heart.” Javiers musical influences spread from the Latin American rhythms of Cumbia, to Rock, Reggae and the Ethno-punk of bands like Mano Negra. From 1996 to 1998 he was a member of the sucessful pop band Grupo Miel, who were breaking through in Argentina and Chile. They made numerous TV appearances and were part of the very popular Cumbia Pop movement. But Javier didn’t want to be part of a movement or an industry, didn’t want to be told what clothes to wear and what music to play - so he left the band and started travelling around Argentina, Uruguay and Brasil. Returning to Buenos Aires he decided to work on the streets, playing guitar and selling jewellery to make a living. Amongst the many people he met during this time was a girl who invited him to Europe, he travelled to France, Norway and Spain - and in 2006 he visited Sweden for the first time, where he is still based today in the city of Malmö. Javier’s outlook on life is greatly influenced by the culture of the ancient Mayans and he feels that our consumerist approach to life makes us lose respect for the simple things, for other people and for nature itself. But these are the important things if we want to survive and that’s the message in Javier’s songs. As much as life is about earning enough to pay for rent and food, it shouldn’t just be about growing richer and richer. It is about cherishing the moment - in a glance, a conversation, a poem or a song. Whilst striving to take his music to a next level – from the streets into the studio, onto the radio and into peoples hearts and homes, Javiers philosophy remains the same: “I want my songs to be the voice of the people on the street.” Javier’s message is one of hope and optimism - offering an alternative to our life of global consumerism. No matter where in the world you live “the people on the streets don’t worry about tomorrow, because their life today is hard enough.”
