Loverboy isn’t really one for lists, but if we had a Ones to Watch in 2023, Wesley Joseph would be very that. This week he dropped new single, ‘Sugar Dive‘ which is giving us Galcher Lustwerk meets Channel Tres, Deep House with Disco shimmer and today he releases his sophomore album Glow via Secretly Canadian.
“I wrote ‘Sugar Dive’ with Leon Vynehall and Harvey Dweller in London last summer. We wanted to make something that felt like the warmth of the season – and had a sense of romance and nostalgia to it. I kept the second verse free after we finished the production and shared it with my friend DEAN, who is an amazing South Korean artist. He was feeling it and the rest came together really easily.” – Wesley Joseph
The Birmingham-born Wesley Joseph will also be supporting Loyle Carner on his sold-out UK run starting this month – including a date at Wembley Arena – before starting his debut headline North American tour, and a London headline show at KOKO on Thursday 18th May.
