Brixton-bred singer Santino Le Saint has been riding the wave of momentum after a multitude of critically acclaimed releases.

And rather than rest on his laurels, the Soul-filled singer is keeping the flow of freshness coming.

Indeed, the rising star has poured out potent new single ‘whisky & wine,’ which is housed on his forthcoming (quirkily-titled) EP, ‘new material.’

Produced by Will Brown, the magnetic track unpacks the complex layers of lovers who are so close emotionally yet are navigating being so far away physically.

Ahead of a stacked set of live dates, that include this summer’s Cloud X Festival on a bill that also features JoJo, Le Saint took center stage on That Grape Juice Live.

Showcasing the unique blend of his broad range of influences (which span R&B, Soul, Country, and Rock), Le Saint wowed with a stirring showing of ‘whisky & wine’ as well as a rousing cover of Chris Stapleston‘s ‘Sometimes I Cry.’

Lauren Jauregui continues her solo ascend with the release of brand new EP ‘In Between.’

The Fifth Harmony alum has kept a flow of fresh material coming since the group went its separate ways and, with each offering, has showcased her artistic anchoring and sonic growth.

‘In Between’ adds to that trajectory in a rousingly resonating way.

Soulful, piercing, and characteristically raw, Jaregui says of the project:

“I am so grateful beyond words if you take the time to listen (extra gratitude if you choose to buy the project as I am INDEPENDENT!) It is my intention that these songs accompany you through summer, through sadness, through laughter, through moments spent with those you love, especially yourself. It is my intention to make you feel something in this chaotic ass world where numbing and disconnection and surface level energy is our normal. It is my intention to disrupt, to heal, to create with pure love and authenticity and I hope you feel that when you listen to #InBetween”
