Toby Corton

“...delicious jazz-pop.” - NOTION

To quote BBC 6Music’s Tom Robinson, Toby Corton is a 'charismatic queer cockney creative' currently based in East London. His music has been described by Earmilk as “British soul, held together by a modern indie pop overtone” and 2023 is shaping up to be an exciting year for his music.

Toby has been making music since 2017 and his love of the creative process has led him to taking photos of the likes of legendary Drag Queen Bimini and London Trans Pride founder Lucia Blayke. A refreshing mix of retro and modern influences, Toby describes his sound as “a modern British take on neo-soul built on a foundation of frank queer storytelling.”

Toby’s previous supporters include the likes of Dazed, NOTION, Clash Magazine, Earmilk and GX Magazine, as well as BBC 6Music, BBC Introducing London and Essex. Toby has also racked up over 500,000 views for his COLORS show. The talented singer-songwriter has developed from acoustic performances to now working with a full live band, playing to sold out audiences for headline shows at Servant Jazz Quarters, The Windmill (Brixton) and the Roundhouse, for Roundhouse Rising Present as part the music group, StateIsFlow.

2023 will see Toby Corton continue to come into his own with more exciting new music, watch this queer space...
