Perspective

Marchant was born and raised in Manchester, the son of Jamaican parents who separated when he was still young.[2] In 2007, he co-founded and contributed vocals in the six-piece Kid British. The band went on to have a moderately successful career and released five EPs between 2009 and 2012 before splitting with a final farewell gig in Manchester in December 2012.

His debut solo EP as Bipolar Sunshine, Aesthetics, was produced/co-written with Jazz Purple and released in June 2013, with the lead track "Rivers" becoming iTunes' "free single of the week".[3] His next EP Drowning Butterflies followed in November 2013 and featured the single "Love More Worry Less".[4]

In 2014, Bipolar Sunshine embarked on A Dream for Dreamer's Tour in the UK, with his London show at XOYO sold out 5 weeks in advance.[5] He released two singles produced by Jazz Purple: "Where Did the Love Go" which was featured on BBC Radio 1's playlist and "Deckchairs on the Moon" which charted at no. 85 in the UK Singles Sales Chart[6] and also no. 93 in the UK Downloads Chart.[7] He appeared at the Blissfields festival[8] and headlined Shepherd's Bush Empire.

His song "Daydreamer" was used in BBC One's 2015 trailer.[9][10] The track became arguably his most successful single to date, peaking at no. 67 in the UK Downloads Chart[11] and no. 129 in the main UK Singles Chart in February 2015.[12] He supported the Courteeners at their gig at Manchester's Heaton Park and performed at Kendal Calling in July 2015. He contributed vocals on DJ Snake's popular 2016 single "Middle" which was a top 10 hit in the UK.
