ILUVLIVE is a live music and artist development platform that has been running since 2004. We are a not for profit company who support the development of emerging artists and practitioners working in Black music genres.
Initially a London based showcase platform hosted by Ras Kwame and Twin B, iluvlive grew to deliver 70+ events a year across UK cities. We supported the emergence of Emeli Sande, Wretch 32, Jessie J, Tinie Tempah, Ghetts, Chip, Ed Sheeran, Krept and Konan, Tom Grennan, Mahalia, Ella Mai, Ms Banks and Little Simz, to name but a few.
In 2014 we officially launched our artist development programme who’s alumni include Nao, Laura White, Lylo Gold, Jords and Emmavie.
We provide real-world, genre-specific professional development, instilling a resourceful spirit and invaluable knowledge in the artists we support and bringing much-needed visibility to true artistic talent.
Our overarching efforts have contributed to changing the landscape of British Black music.
