ROMEO STODART

​

Romeo Stodart is the lead singer/songwriter in the much loved London based rock n roll harmony group The Magic Numbers.

​

The band comprising of two pairs of brothers and sisters have released five critically acclaimed albums thus far including the self-titled Mercury Music Prize nominated, million selling debut. Alongside The Magic Numbers, Romeo has collaborated with a vast array of artists including writing songs for & with the late Jane Birkin, Edwyn Collins, Amadou & Mariam, The Chemical Brothers and Ren Harvieu, producing records for Billy Bragg, Natalie Imbruglia & Kathryn Williams to name a few.

 

He has also contributed his unique guitar playing style to various projects, adding banjo, guitar & harmonies on the Spiritualized album, Sweet Heart Sweet Light, touring with Jimmy Webb & The Webb Brothers to playing as part of Damon Albarn’s Africa Express collective. Romeo is currently putting the finishing touches to a new Magic Numbers album due to be released early next year.

​

And quote from Romeo about doing solo shows here: “Playing solo shows is a really fun way for me to connect with fans of the band in an intimate setting. I just love the spontaneous nature of it all, from taking song requests, impromptu covers, sharing new songs, audience duets. It’s equally beautiful and chaotic, just like life really.”
