Success Express continues to introduce exciting new Independent artists to new audiences at PizzaExpress Live. We are thrilled to present a cool, soulful and funky lineup headlined by Fox Jackson with full band and special guests.
Fox Jackson
London based singer/songwriter Fox Jackson has been enamoured by music from as young as he can remember. Inspired by the likes of artists such as Earth Wind and Fire, Kool and the Gang and George Benson, his music blends funk-fuelled melodies, sexy vocals and dance-worthy beats, creating a vibrant and distinct sound which is undeniably his own.
His career in the entertainment industry began at just 11 years old, when he landed the lead role as Billy Elliot, in the hit West End musical, "Billy Elliot the Musical". His time there solidified his desire to be on stage, while also pushing him to dive deeper into the world of music. Following multiple roles on both stage and TV, Fox soon made an easy transition to his first love and true calling, music. Discovering his own sound and style, Fox has since been crafting music.
Good Hugg
Good Hugg sits confidently in his own stylistic circle, drawing on influences from 80s alternative pop, contemporary electronica, indie and pop, resulting in a sound that is both nostalgic and novel. With dreamy keyboards and mellow vocals, honest songwriting always lies at the heart of Guildhall School of Music & Drama graduate’s music. With influences including Mk.Gee, Prince and Jordan Rakei, Good Hugg’s sound is at times feel-good, with sunny grooves and warm sonics, ans at others more reflective and meditative, utilising his years of experience in electronic, jazz and classical music.
Alessia
Alessia is a London-based independent pop artist, who combines disco-funk nostalgia with a contemporary cool-pop edge. Her latest single Spicy was A-Listed on Amazing Radio and climbed to number 5 on the Amazing Radio charts. Alessia’s debut EP Modern Disco Girl was released in March 2024, produced and co-written by the legendary Will Hicks (Ed Sheeran, Jamie Lawson). She cites diverse influences including Kylie, Sigrid, The Weekend and Calvin Harris.
