Singles

 

CHARLIE CUNNINGHAM – ‘Don’t Go Far

Following his time on the road supporting Lucy Rose, acoustic songwriter Charlie Cunningham has relocated from Oxford to London and is set for big things in 2019. His raw talent is obvious on all his previously released tracks and each new release is eagerly awaited by the music press.

Don’t Go Far’ is the name of Cunningham’s new single which really shows off his expert playing of the six string and his rich vocal abilities, able to convey strong emotions. ‘Don’t Go Far’ will appear on his upcoming album ‘Permanent Way’ which is released on Friday 7th of May.

Charlie Cunningham tickets are currently available.

 

 

PAUL WOOLFORD & KAREN HARDING – ‘You Already Know

Karen Harding is the R&B and soul singer who shot to attention with the release of her stunning debut single ‘Say Something’ which became a huge club classic and broke the Top 10 upon its release in 2015. It has since reached Platinum certification.                 

 She has just teamed up with producer Paul Woolford for their blissful new single ‘You Already Know’. Channelling the hazy days Woolford spent as a resident DJ for awesome Ibiza club Space and making superb use of Harding’s exquisite vocals, ‘You Already Know’ is the earworm already digging into your head ready for summer.

You can see Karen Harding make an extra special headline performance at Hoxton Bar & Kitchen in London on Wednesday 29th of March. Tickets are already selling fast so make sure you grab yours before they all go!

Karen Harding tickets are currently available.

 

 

 

EP

 

BLUE AMERICANS – ‘Sum Yen

Belfast based alt pop paring Kris Platt and Daniel Morgan Ball are Blue Americans. Having previously worked together in the band More Than Conquerors, the old friends were reunited after Platt returned home from a time living in Paris. They have since began developing their following with electrifying live shows, including an appearance at SXSW in Austin, Texas.

Today sees the release of their up beat four track EP ‘Sum Yen’ on LAB Records which includes the euphoric singles ‘Honey’ and ‘Sunchaser’ which radiate youthful optimism and the eager ambition to chase all of life’s opportunities. ‘Dumbo’ is far more self-critical, proving the duos emotional depth and ‘This Old Thing’ pursues an R&B direction which also shows off their range and hints at greater things to come.

We are writing a lot at the minute, and we are in talks with our team about what our next step is. So I guess as soon as the EP is out we will move on to the next thing. There will be more music either before summer or after. That’s the plan at the minute. Whether there’s going to be an album, I don’t know but because we have released singles for so long and we’ve done an EP we kind of like that world and we might want to continue that, but we will see.

Blue Americans tickets are currently available.
