RISING is a platform that showcases the very best in new music, whilst raising vital funds for War Child UK. Created by London music promoters, Hot Vox, RISING has raised over £340,000 for War Child UK through gigs, showcases & live-streamed performances.
Now, RISING is evolving into a national fundraising competition, seeking out the best RISING talent and providing them with opportunities to push their career to the next level, all whilst raising awareness and vital funds for War Child UK.
RISING will see artists submit a live performance video filmed exclusively for War Child UK. Music fans will then be able to tune in from the comfort of their own homes whilst claiming creative rewards in return for their donations.
The Top 20 artists that raise the most money for War Child UK will have the opportunity to present their music to our expert panel of music industry professionals, which includes festival bookers, booking agents, producers, DJ’s, radio presenters and music journalists.
The panel is tasked with choosing our winner, who will receive a HUGE stack of prizes.
Who will be crowned the best in RISING talent?
Filmed live at Soundstage Studios. For more information visit www.soundstagestudios.co.uk
Rory Rockett is a 19-year-old singer-songwriter exploring new worlds with their imaginative folk-pop music. Hailing from Essex but now studying songwriting in London, their lyric-focused songs are informed by their queer experiences and love of fantasy and history. Artists like Aurora, Hozier, Joni Mitchell and The Last Dinner Party are at the forefront of their inspiration. Rory’s current music has evolved from stripped-back SoundCloud tracks and self-produced indie-pop, releasing their single “You (What Enemies Do)” independently in April 2024. 2025 is a year of new music for Rory Rockett, with multiple singles planned for the near future and their EP scheduled for an Autumn release.
