Belfast’s Beat Carnival has commissioned one of Northern Ireland’s most successful young musicians to write a summer dance hit to raise the profile of the arts charity.
David Lyttle, already a household name in Irish jazz, is gaining recognition as an urban music artist thanks to his latest album, Interlude, called ‘exceptional’ by MOBO. He has collaborated with many top-class musicians, including Mercury-nominated Soweto Kinch, US rapper iLLspokinN (Run DMC), keyboardist Jason Rebello and bassist Pino Palladino.
