Four years ago during lockdown, Myles started posting covers online and went viral in 2022 with his acoustic version of The Neighbourhood’s Sweater Weather.
Since then, he’s played Glastonbury, a virtual concert in Fortnite and even bagged a spot on former US President Barack Obama’s summer playlist.
“I started playing pubs and open mic nights when I was just 12 and music quickly became my way of understanding the world and connecting with others,” Myles says.
“This recognition feels like a reflection of that journey – the highs, the challenges and the incredible people who’ve supported me along the way.”

Elmiene has completed two world tours, including sell-out shows in North America
The soul singer from Oxford, who’s previously collaborated with Stormzy, says he’s “extremely grateful” to now be nominated for the Brit Rising Star award.
“If I could put the feeling of being nominated into words, I would say it’s like being completely satisfied with a meal you bought and then finding out it comes with dessert and a drink,” he says.
“Didn’t know it could get any better.”
Although he was nicknamed “the Michael Jackson kid”, Elmiene hadn’t written a song before his music GCSE and even then didn’t think it was for him.
But after a housemate posted a video of him singing in his back garden in 2021, he’s blown up online with more than a million monthly listeners on Spotify and backing from legends like Missy Elliot and SZA.

Good Neighbours went viral with their track Home, which has been streamed millions of times
Completing the list of nominees is east London indie duo Good Neighbours, formed of Scott Verrill and Oli Fox.
Their viral hit Home has been streamed more than 450 million times around the world – the most streamed debut single globally from a new artist this year, according to the Brit Awards.
Judges describe their music as “bursting with hope and joyous abandon”, inspired by the likes of MGMT, Passion Pit and Bleachers.
“The BRITs have always been a huge dream for both of us growing up,” Scott and Oli say.
“We started Good Neighbours purely for the fun of it, so to be up for an actual Brit award at this stage in our career is the biggest honour.”
The Last Dinner Party were named 2024’s Rising Star and since then have gone on to sell out a tour and release their debut album, A Prelude to Ecstasy.
The Brit Awards will be broadcast live from the O2 in London on Saturday 1 March.
