Rockstar presents TRNSMT 2026 has announced that soulful R&B singer Skye Newman is the latest artist to be added to the 2026 lineup, on Sunday, 21st June.
Skye Newman burst onto the scene through social media, amassing 1.2M followers on TikTok and over 550k on Instagram. Her first official single “Hairdresser” went viral and she has been a rising star since, with her track “Family Matters” breaking into the UK top 10 singles chart earlier this year.
Inspired by the storytelling of rap and the emotional depth of soul, Skye’s musical journey began with her aunt, a jazz and blues singer, who introduced her to the magic of songwriting and studio life. Later influences like Amy Winehouse, Adele, Bob Marley, and Eminem further shaped her sound – working closely with her musical friends, Skye found her sound, blending poetic lyricism, raw emotion, and a fearless approach to honesty in her music.
Her songwriting delivers vivid storytelling and has earned her a fast-growing fanbase, having recently sold out her upcoming O2 Academy Glasgow show. Her rise in the scene has seen her performing on stage with Ed Sheeran as well as supporting Lewis Capaldi on his recent tour.
