SLEEP IN THE SHINE IS A DUO COMPRISED OF BOLTN AND CARMINE NICELY. THEY BRING TOGETHER THEIR

UNIQUE EXPERIENCES AND ECLECTIC INFLUENCES TO CREATE MUSIC THAT PROMOTES POSITIVITY, SELF

GROWTH, COMMUNITY, AND LOVE. THROUGH A BALANCE OF EXUBERANCE AND INTROSPECTION, THEY

EXPLORE PROFOUND PERSONAL JOURNEYS AND SHARE THEM WITH THE WORLD THROUGH SOUND. THEIR

COLLABORATION IS DRIVEN BY A DEEP CREATIVE CONNECTION THAT INSPIRES THEM TO MERGE

INDIVIDUAL STYLES AND STORIES INTO A COHESIVE ARTISTIC VISION.

THEIR MUSIC AND SOUND
AT ITS CORE, THEIR SOUND IS A VIBRANT BLEND OF HIP HOP, NEO SOUL, AND THE RAW ENERGY OF UK

UNDERGROUND MUSIC. SLEEP IN THE SHINE’S MUSIC REFLECTS A WIDE RANGE OF INFLUENCES, WEAVING

SOULFUL AND MELODIC ELEMENTS OF AMERICAN HIP HOP WITH THE RUGGED AND UNTAMED SOUNDS OF

THE UK SCENE. THEIR GOAL IS TO CRAFT SONIC EXPERIENCES THAT EMBODY REAL EMOTIONS AND LIVED

EXPERIENCES, GUIDING LISTENERS THROUGH JOURNEYS THAT ARE BOTH DYNAMIC AND DEEPLY

PERSONAL.

THEY SOLD OUT THEIR MIXTAPE RELEASE SHOW, AND THEIR TRACKS HAVE BEEN GAINING INCREASING

TRACTION, RECEIVING AIRPLAY ON MAJOR STATIONS SUCH AS BBC, FM4, TRIBE VIBES, AND RADIO EINS,

HIGHLIGHTING THE GROWING REACH AND RESONANCE OF THEIR SOUND.

THEIR BACKGROUND
SLEEP IN THE SHINE EMERGED FROM A RICH HISTORY OF MUSICAL EXPLORATION. CARMINE NICELY

BEGAN HIS JOURNEY IN BERLIN AS A CLASSICALLY TRAINED MUSICIAN, LATER MOVING THROUGH ROCK,

FUNK, AND HIP HOP BEFORE BLENDING GENRES IN PROJECTS SUCH AS SAVE LOVE AND PEACE AND ICE

CREAM DREAM. BOLTN BRINGS THE RAW INFLUENCE OF THE UK UNDERGROUND AND WAS FORMERLY

PART OF THE BAND LANDER, WHERE HE DEVELOPED HIS DISTINCT STYLE AND SOUND.

THEIR PARTNERSHIP BEGAN IN VIENNA IN 2023. TOGETHER, THEY CHANNEL THEIR SHARED VISION AND

LIFE EXPERIENCES INTO SLEEP IN THE SHINE, CREATING A SOUND THAT IS REFLECTIVE, ENERGETIC, AND DEEPLY CONNECTED.
