The Multiverse - 'Divine'
The rising artist and produce The Multiverse sets the pace with new soulful single ‘Divine’.
Otherwise known as Olesandr Balabanov - the young singer-songwriter combines vintage tones with a new modern twist and beat. Giving us an old soul with a fresh bright mind. Capturing the essence and the feeling of 70s music and wrapping it in his modern and innovative production, The Multiverse pushes boundaries of what UK R&B can sound like with just his debut single - the future is definitely exciting.
In his only 17 years, Oleksandr has travelled the globe, being born and raised in Ukraine, and having performed in all corners of the world. From doing festivals in countries like Brazil, Australia, US, Canada, China, representing his country’s culture as a kid, to writing and performing a song for Junior Eurovision 2020. Having to flee Ukraine due to war, Oleksandr found his new home and community among London’s creatives, being a frequent performer on the soul jam scene and entering university at 16 as its youngest ever degree student.
