Come Play With Breed, Vol. 2 - LIVE! Tickets

Come Play With Me (CPWM) are delighted to announce “Come Play With Breed, Vol. 2 - LIVE!”, a celebration of the organisation’s second collaborative compilation release with Breed Media, out on July 12th 2024. The award-winning non-profit music organisation will host four of the North’s most exciting artists at this launch event: Graft, Mica Sefia, D5 and Hannah Rowe.

About Come Play With Breed, Vol. 2: 

CPWM team up with Sheffield-based music and media manufacturing specialists Breed Media for the second time. Embodying CPWM’s aims to produce “less barriers, more opportunities”, Vol. 2 spotlights the Hip Hop and Soul scenes which have historically received less support from the Northern music industry than their counterparts. Graduates from Vol. 1 of the collaborative compilation include Hang Linton, who recently supported Yard Act at the O2 Apollo Manchester, and Wonderland-endorsed Claudia Fenoglio.

The A-side of the compilation features winner of BBC’s The Rap Game UK and MOBO Unsung, Graft, who delivers conscious and mature lyricism over a jazz-inspired hip hop production on “Vows To The Art”. Graft is joined by close friend and fellow Leeds-based artist D5. Drawing influence from the likes of Drake, Skepta and Brent Faiyaz, D5’s sound flits between moody R&B and upbeat UK Rap that oozes a calm confidence. Former contestant on The Voice UK Hannah Rowe opens the Soul-inspired B-Side with a dramatic fusion ballad for old souls. Finally, Mica Sefia closes the release with a powerful narration on her experiences as a black woman, sustaining Vol. 1’s spoken word interpolations.

Tony Ereira:

“It’s always a real thrill to be working with the folks at Breed - and to be collaborating on a project that’s shining a light on Leeds’ hip hop and neo-soul scenes is even more exciting. Can’t wait for everyone to see and hear what we’ve got lined up here!”

Graham Worsfold: 

“We’re really proud to work with Come Play With Me again. This compilation continues to showcase the fantastic musical talent around Leeds and it’s a pleasure to put these artists on vinyl for people to enjoy”

Come Play With Breed, Vol. 2 is available to pre-order now and will be released on 10” eco-mix vinyl and all major digital platforms on July 12th 2024.
