Masked artist from Luton releases single on Valentine's Day - with special giveaway
A masked garage artist from Luton is celebrating being back on the music scene and releasing a new single with a special giveaway this Valentine’s Day.
TVKØ has been making music since he was 14 years old, but has intentionally created this anonymous persona as part of his rebrand.
He explained: “I’m coming out in a way where no one really knows me.”
The garage artist and MC spent years on the underground music scene, both creating his own music and producing others’.
His name, a new spin on ‘The Versatile Kid’, was chosen to honour the previous musical work he has done.
For this single, Question Mark, out on Saturday (February 14), TVKØ has reworked a version of a 13-year-old track to debut this weekend.
The 41-year-old said: “The song really fits for Valentine’s Day as it touches on romance, with dance‑floor energy that holds up in a club, while the vocal cuts through and carries the track.”
The man, who works in IT, was born and raised in the town and has strong ties to Luton’s music scene.
He explained: “All of my routes come back here.”
The return to music was motivated partly by the death of two close friends in 2025.
The artist said: “One of them, in particular, always wanted me to come back. It’s not just for me, it’s the people as well.”
As part of the promotion for his new music, he is offering a special signed cover art and a secret prize for three lucky people who pre-save the song.

After decades on the scene, he gave some advice to any Lutonian wanting to break into something creative: “As long as that passion stays there and it’s maintained, that is the first thing.
“No matter what the circumstances are… it shouldn’t be a problem for you to achieve your goals if you’re very passionate about it and very focused on your goals.”
