Radiant Children

Incorporating elements of funk, jazz, and sun-dazed soul, Radiant Children's relaxed alternative R&B sounds emerged in 2016 on a collaboration with GoldLink. They delivered their first EP, Tryin', in 2018. Based in London, Radiant Children formed in 2016, appearing in name the next year on GoldLink's "Summatime," which also featured Wale. By the time they released their debut single, "Life's a Bitch," in June 2018, members were established individually as songwriters and session musicians. Singer Fabienne Holloway had co-written material for other artists, including singles by Rosie Lowe ("So Human") and Zedd ("Get Low"). Instrumentalist Marco Bernardis, known primarily as a saxophonist, worked with Iggy Azalea and Elli Ingram. Tyler Acord, aka Lophiile, had released solo tracks, produced material for Chon and Gallant, and remixed Troye Sivan's "Wild" and Zedd's "Stay." As Radiant Children, they released the debut EP Tryin' in August of 2018 and later had a streaming breakout with "Poke Bowl" from the EP. Tracks including "Sky Mind" and "Mariposa" followed in 2020. ~ Andy Kellman & Marcy Donelson
