MF Robots

British funk/soul duo

Jan Kincaid, the former drummer, songwriter, producer, and founder of the The Brand New Heavies met Dawn Joseph, the vocalist and multi-instrumentalist, when she started singing for the Heavies in 2013. The pair instantly clicked, and within their first week of working together, they were writing songs. By the end of their first month, they already had far too many for the Heavies to realistically put out. They kept writing together though and after issuing the album "762090" (2014) with the Heavies, they left. Now they’ve formed their own band, MF Robots – their name, a subtle dig at how generic today’s music climate has become – based around Joseph’s effusive vocals, mindful of soul’s golden age but no revival, and Kincaid’s killer rhythms.

MF Robots released their debut album "1372339" in 2018, which was followed by "2457718" in 2022. The first single, "Hello Sunshine", from the upcoming third album is released on 7th August 2025.
