London's soulful up and comer Nectar Woode is becoming one to watch this year, following endorsements from tastemakers including Jack Saunders, Zane Lowe and Sir Elton John, as well as BBC 1Xtra, The Guardian, DIY and Clash.

The Ghanian-British singer/songwriter, who cites soul icons Minnie Ruperton and Deniece Williams as musical influences, released her debut EP Nothing To Lose in February, and its lead track Good Vibrations was named Jack Saunders's Next Wave on his BBC Radio 1 Future Artists show. The ICMP graduate has gone on to support artists including Isaac Gracie, Alice Phoebe Lou and November Ultra.
