&friends is the musical concept and brainchild of New York based Sean Thomas. Drawing the
breadth of his inspiration for these musical works from global cultures, Sean had a vision to
create a project embodying tradition, culture and community culminating in the coining of
&friends.

Since the project’s 2022 debut the sounds of &friends have made their way to every corner of
the globe. The Nitefreak Remix of his sophomore single “Ode Ireti' ft. Oluwadamvic saw
unprecedented, viral success. Receiving massive radio and touring support from top names in
the space, the infectious chorus “o-le-le” has become a staple in the sets of many titans of
dance music.

From New York, to Miami, Marrakech, Madrid, Mexico City - Tulum to Toronto and beyond,
&friends is already making his mark on dance floors around the world. In his short time on the
scene, &friends has received support by Pete Tong of BBC Radio 1, Black Coffee, Diplo, &ME,
Keinemusik, Michael Bibi, Blond:ish, Francis Mercier and many more. Also catching the eye of
media tastemakers, he’s earned attention from the likes of LA Weekly, Wonderland Magazine,
Magnetic Magazine, Electronic Groove, EARMILK and more.
Future collaborations and major label releases are already in the works with the likes of Carlita,
Nico de Andrea, Nitefreak, Ahmed Spins, Jamiie, Dr Feel, Pippi Ciez, Marten Lou and a
milestone soulful afro house cover of Armin Van Burrens, “This Is What It Feels Like” featuring
one of &friends’ own Phina Asa, being slated for release with Armada.
Set to be a breakout year for &friends, 2023 will deliver a thoughtfully produced, artfully
composed compilation of works set to make its way to listeners in the time ahead. Through a
holistic, multifaceted approach, the project is set to make its way to even more dance floors
around the world to unite us all.
