Producer/singer extraordinaire

Singer and producer Labrinth has been making major waves this year, achieving national notoriety by producing and featuring on Tinie Tempah’s top five smashes Frisky and Pass Out. The latter hit the number 1 spot earlier this year, becoming one of 2010’s most recognisable anthems.

Still only in his early 20s, the sought after talent Labrinth is the first artist in six years to be signed to Syco without being connected to any of the reality TV shows that Simon Cowell works on. As well as working with a host of acclaimed artists, he recently brought out his single Let The Sun Shine, and his much anticipated debut album is to follow.
