Singer-songwriter Rukhsana Merrise stars in new Music Box session

Season 5 continues with this stripped-down performance from the London-based musician

Rukhsana Merrise has treated us to a sublime Music Box session where she performed three original tracks, including two from the forthcoming second half of her debut album Child OToday.

The singer-songwriter released the first part of the record, Child, in December last year, and has previously collaborated with the likes of Ghetts and Kojey Radical.

In an earlier Independent feature, Child was described as "resplendent, eclectic, and full of the west London singer-songwriter’s unique character.

"It explores the struggles of love and self-doubt, with a synergy between adulthood and nostalgia for youth, and is built on a fusion of acoustic guitar, modern synths."

Watch Rox's amazing session and make sure you check out her new single, "Today", which is out now.
