Songwriter, composer and music producer Renell Shaw has a wealth of experience in a range of musical genres with some of the music industries most unique and sought-after artists.
 
One of his longest running affiliations is with Rudimental as a close writer and multi-instrumentalist, both in the studio and throughout their landmark shows. He has collaborated, recorded, and toured with artists such as: Anne-Marie, Nile Rogers, Jess Glynne, Skepta, Speech Debelle, Maverick Sabre, Morgan, DJ Spinall, Hamzaa, Orphy Robinson MBE and Nitin Sawhney CBE.
 
2020 was the year that Renell gained widespread recognition and won an Ivor Novello Award for his composition ‘The Windrush Suite’. The first of a trilogy of suites that he has written, pays homage to his Caribbean heritage and the pioneering voices of the Windrush generation who began to arrive in England from the West Indies in 1948. ‘The Windrush Suite’ bears all the hallmarks of Renell’s ability to musically emulate and offer tribute to profound moments, people and feelings. ‘The Windrush Suite’ is now being adapted for dance and theatre.
 
In recent years, Renell has expanded his scope with more experimental projects. Back in 2017, he co-created the afro-electronic duo 2fox, which sought to unite London’s multiculturalism and Ibiza’s sunset ethereality with South and West Africa’s spirit and heritage. 2020 marked the year that 2fox released their acclaimed album ‘Inner Drum’ through their label ‘Arusha Records’.
 
The diversity and creativity of Renell’s approach to songwritng, composition and music production is firmly establishing him as an important voice of our time.
