We are now implementing a ú1 restoration levy per ticket at EartH, which looks to raise funds for ongoing works in the building. The majority of these funds will be spent on music education projects for community use, artist studios and maintenance to keep the building functional, as well as improving access facilities for each space. If you have any additional questions about our venue levy don't hesitate to contact us on info@earthackney.co.uk.


Having moved from Trinidad to Romford at the age of nine (the third generation of his family to make the move) BERWYN took just two weeks to write and record his debut mixtape, DEMOTAPE/VEGA, but it distils a lifetime of experiences existing on the fringes of London life. It’s raw and authentic, both lyrically and sonically, each song revealing further layers of Berwyn's life. If you want to know Berwyn's story, it's all there in Vega's tales of hope, hustle and struggle.


BERWYN was never meant to make a mixtape. He was supposed to leave London, return to his motherland of Trinidad and forget about the last few years. He’d gotten himself into trouble, living a life that “felt like dancing on the edge of a knife.” He knew if he kept going out onto the streets then something would happen. So he locked himself away for two weeks in a “shithole flat” and – on a diet of toast, weed and insomnia – began writing and recording the music that would become Vega. Despite hardship, Berwyn is a natural optimist but this was effectively a last roll of the dice.


Following the mixtape’s release came the decision to add a spontaneous verse to his performance of ‘Glory’ in reaction to George Floyd’s death the night before it aired on the infamous ‘Later… with Jools Holland’ – a statement of intent that marked BERWYN our as one of the most exciting talents making music today. From that moment onwards, he honed his skills as a singer, songwriter, producer and collaborator by channelling raw and authentic experiences of London life into his music - a process that awarded him widespread acclaim including a top three finish in the BBC’s ‘Sound Of’ poll, a Mercury Prize shortlist, MOBO nominations and an NME Award.


Across the last 4 years he’s release two mixtapes DEMOTAPE/VEGA and TAPE2/FOMALHAUT, and the diverse EP ‘Bulletproof’ - inspired by his return to his Trinidadian birthplace following years of passport and visa issues that had shadowed him since arriving in the UK.


Having already made such an indelible mark on British music in such a few years, BERWYN is now preparing to release his debut album. He has made a fiercely political and personal record that embodies everything that makes an artist truly exciting in 2024; he’s an authentic and uncompromising creative force, constantly evolving and blurring boundaries as he moves from rap, R&B, spoken word and poetry with an almost effortless fluidit
