Aluna (GB)
Aluna (previously of the platinum-selling duo AlunaGeorge) has sold out shows around the world, amassed billions of streams, and saw her critically acclaimed 2023 album MYCELiUM notch her first Billboard No. 1 as a solo artist with the song “Running Blind,” topping the US Dance Radio charts. Born to a Jamaican father and Indian Mother, Aluna champions Black and queer voices both behind the scenes and on the stage. The genesis of her record label Noir Fever began following Aluna’s 2020-penned open letter to the dance music industry, rightfully making waves and headlines, calling out the lack of Black representation across the industry as a whole.
