Don’t Miss dexter in the newsagent Live in The UK!

South London’s Dexter In The Newsagent is one of the UK’s most exciting and authentic new voices. Her music captures the restless, reflective energy of coming of age, blending lo-fi intimacy with sharp songwriting and understated soul.

Having first started releasing music under the moniker ‘dexter’ to keep her creative world secret from her family, she quickly caught attention with self-recorded tracks made on her iPhone. Her debut EP, I Do Love a Good Sandwich, marked a turning point both sonically and personally, introducing listeners to her raw honesty and melodic instinct. The project drew praise from BBC Radio 1 (Annie Mac, Clara Amfo), NME, Pigeons & Planes, Clash, and The Line of Best Fit, with its artwork created by acclaimed artist Slawn, making it a defining early moment in her rise.

Signed to RULESTHEWORLD Records (the music arm of Corteiz), Dexter has gone from DIY bedroom recordings to selling out headline shows and supporting some of the most forward-thinking artists in music today. Following her acclaimed 2022 project Fortune Cookie, which featured fan favourites “Something Real” and “Vexed”, she’s continued to evolve her sound with singles like “Special”, “Eighteen”, and “I Told Ya.”

Her lyrics explore the messy, beautiful in-betweens of young adulthood, love, frustration, self-doubt, and growth, all with a conversational honesty that’s become her signature. Dexter’s voice, soft yet striking, moves between vulnerability and quiet confidence, earning her comparisons to the UK’s most vital new storytellers.
