19/06/2014 – G-SHOCK Music Sessions 2.0: Hannah Wants, London

Founded on the G-SHOCK ethos of ‘never give up’, the G-SHOCK Sessions began in 2010 providing young up and coming music artists a platform on which to showcase their talents and help them on their way to success. They grew out of the grime and British rap scene which flourished in the early 2000s, however G-SHOCK realise the ever expanding music scene.

Electronic music scenes have fused together, with strong influences from house, techno and early 90s D&B and UK garage, creating a thriving electronic scene in the UK with increasing global influence. Urban Nerds Collective will be helping G-SHOCK deliver a pop-up, intimate live music show at the EAST store on Brick Lane. G-SHOCK Sessions 2.0 will elicit this new sound kicking off with UK Bass legend Hannah Wants.

“A lot of brands want to be associated with fresh UK music, but won’t have the confidence to work with emerging talent from new scenes. It’s great to be working with a forward thinking brand that want to give a platform to upcoming talent” Luke Hodson (Founder)
