ANDY ALLO
http://alloevolution.com/
Cameroonian-born Andy Allo is a singer-songwriter whose profile seems to keep growing, combining elements of soul, rock and much more. She first made a wave with her independently released 2009 debut album, Unfresh, a disc that showed her to be a powerful, eclectic artist with her own sense of purpose. The album showed elements of her influences, ranging from Erkyah Badu to Lauren Hill to Nina Simone -- as well as her mother, a piano teacher who trained her daughter beginning at age seven.
Allo's striking appearance won for her a more visual fame, too, as she became a regular actress in national commercials for companies such as Kohl's, an appearance on BET's The Game, and a hosting role on G4's Attack of the Show.
Allo's reputation as a musician led her in 2011 to a role as a singer and guitarist in Prince's New Power Generation. During the NPG tour, Allo began writing with the Purple One, with the two collaborating on three songs, "Superconductor", "The Calm" and "Long Gone," which are slated to appear on Allo's sophomore album. Said Allo, "Collaborating with Prince was such a blessing. He created an environment that was open to any and all ideas. It was really exciting to bring him an acoustic song, which is how most of my songs began, and to see him turn them into these epic masterpieces.”
The upcoming disc also includes other notable musicians, including Maceo Parker and Trombone Shorty. The first single, "Superconductor," was released to radio in October 2012.

Mara Hruby
Bay Area, California
Age: 25
Mara Hruby from Oakland, CA arrived on the scene at the start of 2010, playing shows throughout the Bay Area, and is releasing her debut EP, From Her Eyes (2010). Mara has worked on this album for the past nine months; she has applied her multi-talented dedication to recording, arranging, and engineering her own work. She has performed on stage, dancing and backing other artists in the Bay Area; unconsciously preparing herself for this path. She has chosen to speak through music in order to connect with those of us who love music.
During an interview with a local entertainment magazine, Mara was asked to describe her sound: “My sound/style comes from what I have experienced in life. I feel my sound is organic, distinct, melodic, eclectic, and filled with sensitivity. To say the least, I’d call my music a melodic melting ? .”
The current practice of recording “covers” of well known music by well loved artists, has led to some very creatively unique results. The surprise breakthrough of Les Nubians’ version of Sade's mellow and soulful ballad, "The Sweetest Taboo," helped their American debut album, Princesses Nubiennes, to achieve a higher position on the Billboard charts than any other French-language album had in the previous decade.
Mara Hruby is a mesmerizing artist who performs on stage with poise and grace. You will be surprised to discover how naturally her music will enter your heart.

HONEY LAROCHELLE-
"known professionally as Honey Larochelle, has been all over the world searching for a "sound." This Vancouver born, Texas Raised, Florida reformed, and Brooklyn saved vocalist has toured with the Brand New Heavies and Joss Stone, Omar and many other bands which eventually lead to a record deal with Macy Gray. Between touring as a background singer and producing,arranging, and writing for other artists, Honey rarely had time to reflect and explore inward for the sound she was looking for; one that moved her and felt like home. Finally, after many twists and turns in her story, this Roberta Flack Protege discovered her very own warm yet edgy mash up of classic soul, R&B, hip-hop and reggae music. Honey found her "sound" on the Fun & Sexy Side of Soul Music. Butter Fly Soul Records Is pleased to announce the release of Honey Larochelle's debut album, "The Yes Feeling" in stores March 12th, 2013."

Never heard of her. Can't wait to hear more from her and did that new tape drop this year?? -
Ayah still doing her thang too. I was surprised to see someone else make a thread about her on here. Just recently, she started going under the name Merna Killed Ayah or something like that now. I think she supposed to be going through some sort of transition w/ her music or something..........
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=UU9xvHdZGE4
http://knownunknowninc.com/tag/merna-killed-ayah/
R.I.P Ayah, hello Merna.
Former Torontonian artist Ayah, who now goes under the moniker of Merna, has reinvented herself & sound. This record sort of reminds me of a R&B-influenced Florence & the Machine track.
Below is the audio for her debut single titled Better Run. Listen now! We’re feeling it over here at The Known Unknown blog. Brava!
But fosho' it ain't too much that can top that mixtape w/ her and Jazzy Jeff on the cover.

It’s simple J Marie has “It” …you know that special something that you can’t create, only cultivate. J Marie’s beauty is without question its own billboard but to her credit when you take the time to enjoy her humble demeanor, serious work ethic, great stage presence and her rich voice it becomes clear that she’s rare. Imagine Mary J Blige’s rawness with Beyonce’s inflections and tone, the smile of Lena Horn and a body elegantly sculpted like a young Sanaii Lathan. She’s eye candy & ear candy with substance. This Spring 2013 you will be able to hear her work first hand from her upcoming album “New Beginnings” Take a look, take a listen and I’m sure you’ll enjoy the complete artist we call… J Marie

Sango is a hip-hop producer who was born in Seattle, Washington, and currently resides in Grand Rapids. Sango released his first instrumental mixtape titled Unfinished & Satisfied in December 2010.
http://soulection.bandcamp.com/album/northThe long-awaited first official LP from Michigan-based producer Sango, North, will release digitally on Soulection July 23, 2013 with vinyl to follow.
Sango’s North brings forth a new sound, one that pulls from soul, rnb, future bass, hip hop and broken beat fusing them together with seamless vocals chops and grooves. North features collaborations from a diverse group of artists like Australia’s Ta-ku, cinematic downtempo producer Atu, nu-soul singer JMSN, story-telling rapper WALDO, newcomer vocalist Brea and Dpat who produced ‘Remember You’ for Wiz Khalifa and The Weeknd.
Following major worldwide support for his refixes, EP’s and beat tapes from the likes of Brownswood’s Gilles Peterson, KCRW’s Aaron Byrd, and Noisey (VICE) to name a few, Sango is poised to elevate the definition of what “future” music is.
10+ casual releases later, North combines the best of Sango over the last few years into one seamless musical journey. North is a love story of two people, on a journey, who find better things in themselves when they are with each other. North in Hebrew as noted visually in the album art [that Sango designed himself], representing a sense of “heaven” or “glory” are symbolic to Sango, as he sees everything he does an artist for the greater glory, the greater good, as something bigger than himself.
North is also on all primary digital markets such as iTunes, Juno, Amazon, Beatport, ect.
