Sasha Samara joins the TALENTBANQ roster

Sasha Samara is your “friendly neighbourhood popstar,” blending heartfelt songwriting with soaring vocals and sharp, character-driven lyricism inspired by Taylor Swift, Paramore and RAYE.

A winner of the 2020 Northern Irish Music Prize for Best New Artist, she’s become known for her electrifying, joy-filled live shows and fearless confessional storytelling that instantly draws audiences in.

After cutting her teeth in Belfast’s grassroots venues, Sasha has gone on to perform at the Northern Irish Music Prize ceremony (2021), Other Voices Cardigan (2022), and support iconic Irish songwriter James Vincent McMorrow at Belfast’s Mandela Hall in 2024.

Madeline Thorp joins the TALENTBANQ roster

Madeline lives in a constant state of reinvention, pouring a new self into every performance and firmly establishing her place in the London folk scene.

“There is nothing exceptional in her singing, except that for when she sings, the whole of London turns inside out” – Gabriel Moreno

Her music with its unique alchemy of soul baring lyrics and a fearless dry wit, debuted with “No One Can Have Me” coming out in March of this year.

Hailing from Preston in North West England, Madeline credits the grey skies of suburbia as the catalyst for her desire to create.

Her lyrics are haunted by a cynical giddy self-awareness – this itself the vessel for her delicately strung explorations of religion, womanhood and modern-world-living.

Madeline Thorp’s SOLD-OUT show at Green Note in May 2025 absolutely wowed us – we couldn’t be more excited to see what she does next!
