24 year old twins Catherine and Lizzy, best known as Ward Thomas, release their eagerly anticipated new album ‘Restless Minds’ October 5th on WTW Music/Sony Music. Lead single ‘Lie Like Me’, available on all platforms from today, is a glorious, addictive slice of their unique sound.

Restless Minds is the follow up to their 2016 No.1 charting major label debut ‘Cartwheels’ and firmly establishes Ward Thomas as leading exponents of new wave country tinged pop. ‘Restless Minds’ is available to pre-order now.

“We never consciously tried to be country,” Lizzy says. “We love country but we’ve always set out to simply write songs that suit the content. The country artists we listen to know are the ones mixing it up and moving the genre on – Maren Morris and Kacey Musgraves in particular. But we also love Lorde, Cardi B, Haim and Julia Michaels.”

Imagine if you can an album that incorporates all those influences and you’ve got a taste of what ‘Restless Minds’ sounds like. A sprawling 15 song collection written in Nashville, London and Hampshire with previous collaborators Jessica Sharman, Rebekah Powell and Martin Terefe (Shawn Mendes) in addition to Ed Drewitt (Little Mix), Rachel Furner (Craig David) and Steve Robson (Paloma Faith). The album was produced in London by Martin Terefe and Joe Rubel (Ed Sheeran).

Lyrically the twins have tackled issues close to their hearts, including pertinent observations on social media, the women’s movement, what ‘the truth’ means in 2018 and mental health.

“As soon as we started writing the album, it became obvious what the themes would be,” says Catherine. “We were discussing current issues for us as twentysomethings, in a world that’s scary because it’s changing so quickly, but is also creating lots of exciting, new opportunities.”

New single ‘Lie Like Me’ is a biting indictment of lives faked online, accompanied by a deceptively sweet, flirtatiously upbeat musical track. It’s totally Ward Thomas circa 2018 and effortlessly showcases their confidence and swagger. Watch the stylish lyric video HERE.

Other highlights on this sonically bold album include ‘No Filter’, which like the rest of the album never stands still, all dreamy piano and percussive electronics and the harmonic twang of the super catchy  ‘Same Love’.

1. No Filter
2. Lie Like Me
3. One More Goodbye
4. It’s Not Just Me
5. Ain’t That Easy
6. Rather Be Breathing
7. Hopeless
8. Never Know

11. No Fooling Me
12. I Believe In you

15. This Too Will Pass

Max George is back and ready to launch his solo career with the infectious summer anthem ‘Barcelona’, out now and available everywhere via his own label SilverMAX.

The eagerly anticipated single is written and produced alongside BRIT Awards British Producer of the Year 2018 Steve Mac (Ed Sheeran) and Ed Drewett (One Direction) and is a bouncy slice of summer pop destined to soundtrack those long days on the beach that turn into nights!

Watch the music video featuring professional surfer, model and influencer Laura Crane HERE

“I’ve worked with a lot of amazing writers, some from The Wanted days, and I feel like I’ve settled in to a sound,” says Max. “It’s not a million miles away from what I’ve done before, but it’s fresher and sharper, sometimes more stripped back, maybe more experimental.”

As a member of The Wanted – or rather, the member of The Wanted, as their fans decreed – Max spent five years topping the charts, touring the world and sparring with 1D for awards. In Britain, three Top 10 albums, two of them platinum, spawned over a dozen hit singles. In the States, the quintet broke through with the 4x platinum, Top 3 single Glad You Came, then the best-selling song by a boy band in the digital era. Worldwide the band has over 700 million views on Youtube. Since then Max has been writing consistently and starred in the final season of Glee.

Fresh from selling out the first leg of his 2018 UK tour (which included 5 dates at London’s Soho Theatre), Dane Baptiste takes his third smash hit show G.O.D. (Gold. Oil. Drugs.) on the road for a further 19 UK dates this autumn including a show at Up The Creek Comedy Club in Greenwich October 23rd, which will be recorded a live special.

The London born stand up made comedy history in 2014 as the first black British act to be nominated for an Edinburgh Comedy Award with his debut show Citizen Dane and his critically acclaimed second Reasonable Doubts that went on to tour the UK – both had multiple sell out shows.

Original, provocative and exceptionally crafted, G.O.D. explores our worldwide pursuit of wealth, power and pleasure. This show is not about GOD, it is a show about G.O.D; an abbreviation of the new things that humanity has come to uphold over everything else; namely Gold, Oil and Drugs. This is a show about the distractions and attractions of modern human life; and how the pursuit of the ‘Good Life’ can involve a lot of evil, vice and debauchery. But is that really a bad thing?

The G.O.D World Tour has already seen Dane head to Australia, New Zealand, Estonia, The Netherlands, Belgium, Latvia and Finland – with one thing uniting them all; audience laughter and critical acclaim:

“one of standup’s most acute social observers”
OBSERVER

“smart, timely and punchily hilarious”
THE SCOTSMAN

“he can make you smile as he informs you that we are all doomed”
EVENING STANDARD

“Oozing experience, confidence and charisma”
EDINBURGH FESTIVAL MAGAZINE *****

“topical and thoughtful with shades of silliness”
SUNDAY POST SCOTLAND ****

“The comedian’s ability to read the audience is second to none”

Following the release of her single ‘In Love’, an interpretation of the Anita Baker classic ‘Sweet Love’ in April, rising star Sharna Bass has returned with new single ‘Hit & Run’ out now on EGA Records.

The track is the third to be taken from her forthcoming EP ‘Beautiful Chaos’ out summer 2018. Produced by Will (Big Tobz, Nathan Sykes), the track is a blissed-out summer house anthem with a dancehall-infused groove and features smooth and sultry vocals from Sharna. Speaking of the track Sharna said ‘I wanted to create a song that is lyrically about heartbreak, whilst musically still being an absolute summer banger’.

Growing up in Kilburn, Sharna was spotted singing at just 13 by chart-topping act Clean Bandit at her local community run project Tabot Mix Centre, and two years later the band got in touch with Sharna to feature on their top 10 single ‘Extraordinary’. After the success of the single Sharna started working on her own new music, and following advice from her mentor and manager to channel her pain into the music, the writing and construction of her debut EP, now called “Beautiful Chaos”, flowed freely.

With a sell-out debut London headline show at The Scotch on her 21st birthday last month and early support from the likes of DJ Target, Mistajam, Trevor Nelson and Manny Norte. Sharna is definitely one to watch in 2018.

Rising UK star LAUREL has today released two new singles ‘Crave’ and ‘Same Mistakes’, both taken from her incredible debut album ‘DOGVIOLET’, out August 24th on Counter Records. These two new tracks follow lead single ‘Lovesick’ and further showcase the sublime vocals and raw guitars of the evocative and effortless 12 track LP.

The two new singles reveal the stylistic range of ‘DOGVIOLET’, with the gritty, driving blues of ‘Same Mistakes’ in contrast to the cinematic and soaring ‘Crave’. First single ‘Lovesick’ set the tone for the album, with open, sparse production revealing LAUREL’s effortlessly emotive voice and the vintage warmth of her guitar playing. Other album highlights include spellbinding live favourite ‘Life Worth Living’, the infectiously wounded ‘Adored’, spikey punk pop hit ‘Same Mistakes’ and bitingly intense track ‘Sun King’ showcasing LAUREL’s mesmerising and intense vocals, seeing her singing ‘What is life, but a dream’.

Recorded without glossing over the imperfections and driven by her personal lyrics and stirring melodies, every track on the album was written and recorded in LAUREL’s home studio in East London. It was then taken to Gizzard Studios to be fed back through a reel-to-reel tape recorder, re-capturing the organic tone that is prevalent within her breathtaking live shows.

Titled after the flower, ‘DOGVIOLET’ is a deeply personal exploration of the bittersweet feeling of love. Laurel says ‘I wrote these songs at home often locking myself away for periods of time in order to capture the true mania that comes from love; although a beautiful feeling, it can often feel a lot uglier.’

Already receiving support from Annie Mac, Zane Lowe, Steve Lamacq, Huw Stephens, Phil Taggart, Apple Music, Spotify, The Guardian, Wonderland and I-D Magazine, as well as partnerships with Burberry, Ellesse, Levis and Vans, ‘DOGVIOLET’ follows LAUREL’s incredible ‘Park’ EP and her captivating Spotify Live EP, released in 2017.

Following a huge 2017, including a UK and European tour with Oh Wonder, two sold-out UK headline tours, and appearances at The Secret Garden Party, Live At Leeds, Outlines Festival and Golden Leaves Festival, LAUREL heads out on a UK and European tour this autumn.

Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter, and composer Rufus Wainwright will play 4 highly anticipated UK dates in April 2019 to commemorate the 20-year anniversary of his eponymous debut which first burst him onto the music scene. Immediately beloved and critically acclaimed, both Rufus and the record were widely hailed as a breakthrough. It influenced many artists that came after him and set the path for his illustrious career ever since.

Rufus will hit the road with his band and perform material from both Rufus Wainwright (1998) and Poses (2001). “20 years, what can I say?” states Rufus. “In life, one stands the test of time but in music, thankfully, one reaps the rewards. Come savour a very fine vintage of songs, those were some pretty good years!” Rufus plays the following UK dates:

April 2019
Sun 21st   London, Royal Albert Hall
Mon 22nd  Birmingham, Symphony Hall
Weds 24th  Manchester, Bridgewater Hall
Thurs 25th  Glasgow, Royal Concert Hall

Tickets go on sale Wednesday 27th June at 10am. Presale tickets are available from Monday 25th June and for further information regarding tickets and VIP packages, please visit rufuswainwright.com.

Rufus Wainwright, one of the great male vocalists, songwriters and composers of his generation, has released eight studio albums, three DVDs, and three live albums. He has collaborated with artists ranging from Elton John, David Byrne, Mark Ronson, Joni Mitchell to Burt Bacharach. At the age of 14 he was named Canada’s best young musician and later received the Juno Award for Best Alternative Album. His album, “Rufus Does Judy” recorded at Carnegie Hall in 2006, was nominated for a Grammy. In 2018, Rufus won for his contribution to the “Tony Bennett Celebrates 90” album in the best traditional pop vocal album category.

His acclaimed first opera, Prima Donna, premiered at the Manchester International Festival in July 2009 and has since been presented in London, Toronto and BAM in New York. In 2010, Wainwright was commissioned by the San Francisco Symphony to compose and interpret “Five Shakespeare Sonnets,” a five-movement song cycle that sets Shakespeare’s “Sonnets” to orchestra and voice. They have since been performed worldwide by orchestras including the Chicago and Montreal Symphonies.

In 2010, he was the first artist to complete a five-concert residency at the Royal Opera House Covent Garden in London. In September 2014, he made his debut with the London Proms at Royal Albert Hall and performed at the Last Night of Proms in the Park.

Other recent achievements include the 2012 world premiere of Sing Me The Songs That Say I Love You: A Concert for Kate McGarrigle, the feature length music documentary that captured the May 2011 tribute concert honoring Rufus’ late mother, the legendary Kate McGarrigle. In 2013, he sang for Billy Joel at the Kennedy Center Honors in Washington. In September 2015, the Deutsche Grammophon released a double CD recording of Prima Donna with the BBC Symphony Orchestra.

Rufus’ latest recording, Take All My Loves: 9 Shakespeare Sonnets, was released on April 22, 2016 on Deutsche Grammophon to critical acclaim. Shortly thereafter, a decade after his celebrated, iconic performances marked a career highlight, Rufus paid tribute once again to the “greatest night in show business” by revisiting Rufus Does Judy at Carnegie Hall, an epic recreation of Judy Garland’s 1961 comeback concert, over two much celebrated nights in June 2016, followed by a restaging at the famed Luminato Festival in Toronto.

The anniversary tour will see Rufus do a full North American tour which will come hot on the heels of the debut of his second opera, Hadrian, set to premiere on October 13th at the Canadian Opera Company (Toronto). Hadrian was inspired by the Roman Emperor Hadrian and his love for Antinous. The opera is composed by Rufus and award-winning Canadian actor, director and playwright Daniel MacIvor.

Rising star Dakota, the voice behind Jonas Blue’s smash hit multi-platinum selling single ‘Fast Car’, releases her brand new single ‘Hate Loving You’ (Virgin/EMI). The track builds from a ballad into a bass-driven latin inspired groove, and sees Dakota conflicted over a love interest, perfectly showcasing her smoky, seductive vocal style.

The track is the second to be taken from the forthcoming ‘Call Me When You Get This’ EP after the sultry ‘Sober (feat. Not3s)’.

Having grown up in Spain but now based in south London, Dakota was first spotted by Grammy Award winning writer/producer Fraser T. Smith (the man who produced Stormzy’s album ‘Gang Signs and Prayer’) who signed her to his 70Hz label in 2015.

Dakota has been in close collaboration with Fraser ever since, and spent 2017 working with songwriters such as Jamie Scott (One Direction, Rag’N’Bone Man) and Eg White (Adele, Florence & The Machine), honing her distinct vocal style and drawing on her diverse influences.

Stay tuned for information on the ‘Call Me When You Get This’ EP.

When Depeche Mode entered the scene with the release of the group’s first single “Dreaming of Me”/“Ice Machine” on February 20, 1981, it laid the groundwork for one of the most transformative career paths in contemporary music. Depeche Mode combined elements of new wave pop, dance, rock, blues and electronic music to create emotional soundscapes for the future and the 12″ vinyl single – with superior sound and deeper grooves favored by dance club DJs and fans alike – proved the perfect sonic medium for the band’s sweeping vision.

Depeche Mode realized the format’s potential and embraced the power of 12″ vinyl and the avenues of innovation it opened up. The 12″ single allowed the band to explore new sonic possibilities while the physical beauty of the packaging gave Depeche Mode room to develop a sophisticated and commanding visual aesthetic. Depeche Mode used their singles discography as a means of offering left field remixes and other delights for their fans.

“Our 12″ singles have always been incredibly important to the band” agreed the members of Depeche Mode. “It’s great to be able to re-share these songs with old and new fans in the way they were originally intended to be experienced. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do.”

These first two box sets will be released by Sony Music Entertainment on August 31, 2018.

Each box set in the series will contain the singles from each Depeche Mode album on audiophile-quality 12” vinyl, with audio remastered from the original tapes and cut at the legendary Abbey Road Studios. The artwork for the exterior of each of the new box sets draws on street art iconography inspired by the original releases, while the vinyl sleeves themselves feature the original vinyl single artwork.

Speak & Spell | The 12” Singles contains a facsimile reproduction of the rare Flexi Disc “Sometimes I Wish I Was Dead” b/w “King of the Flies” (the Fad Gadget track as on the original release); Dreaming Of Me 12”: “Dreaming of Me” b/w “Ice Machine”; New Life 12”: “New Life (Remix)” b/w “Shout! (Rio Mix)”; Just Can’t Get Enough 12”: “Just Can’t Get Enough (Schizo Mix)” b/w “Any Second Now (Altered)”; original single poster reproduction; download card.

A Broken Frame | The 12” Singles contains See You 12”: “See You (Extended Version)” b/w “Now This Is Fun (Extended Version)”; The Meaning of Love 12”: “The Meaning of Love (Fairly Odd Mix)” b/w “Oberkorn (It’s a Small Town) (Development Mix)”; Leave In Silence 12”: “Leave In Silence (Longer)” b/w “Further Excerpts From: My Secret Garden” and “Leave In Silence (Quieter)”; original single poster reproduction; download card.

The Depeche Mode 12” Singles Series will continue over the coming years, with plans to release boxes containing the singles from each of the band’s albums in similar deluxe audiophile-grade collector’s editions.

Depeche Mode is currently in the midst of the Global Spirit Tour, a worldwide concert tour that started in May 2017 and will finish this summer with a pair of shows at the Waldbühne in Berlin on July 23 and 25. In all, the 15-month Global Spirit Tour will see the band play to over 3 million fans across Europe, North America and South America.

As part of the Depeche Mode’s ongoing charity partnership with Swiss watchmaker Hublot for the benefit of charity: water, a global non-profit bringing clean, safe drinking water to people in developing countries, a special limited-edition series of watches inspired by the band’s 55 singles are also being released. Each watch will be unique, with one watch made for each single, incorporating the artwork from the single into the design of the watch. Each watch will come housed in a custom Rimowa suitcase containing the watch, a Roland JP-08 synthesizer, a copy of the corresponding vinyl single, and a certificate of authenticity signed by the band. Net proceeds from the sale of the watches will be go to charity: water. More details on this series are available on www.hublot.com

Formed in 1981, Depeche Mode continue to win critical and commercial acclaim around the world, both in the studio and on the road. The band have released 14 studio albums which have reached the Top 10 charts in more than 20 countries including the US, UK, Germany and France. Their most recent album, Spirit, was released in March 2017 and debuted at #5 on Billboard 200 and the UK album charts (becoming their 17th Top 10 UK album). With more than 100 million records sold worldwide, Depeche Mode have well earned their distinction as “the most popular electronic band the world has ever known” (Q Magazine).

“A return to the echoing, distorted sound of their classic early records, The Rover struts along with Lust For Life pep and spunk, but gilded with the band’s typical dread” – THE GUARDIAN

“New single ‘The Rover’ finds Interpol marauding back to their menacing best” – NME

“Paul Banks and co emerge back into the daylight of day with a stomping introduction to Marauder” – MUSIC WEEK

Following last week’s triumphant announcement of their new album, Marauder, which was livestreamed via a press conference in Mexico City (watch HERE), Interpol have confirmed another batch of headlining world tour dates.

In addition to previously announced high-profile shows at Madison Square Garden, Royal Albert Hall, and Hollywood Bowl, this new run of dates will bring Interpol’s electrifying live energy to major East Coast, Midwestern, and Southwestern cities this fall, with further European dates to follow.

Interpol, who are one of the most critically and commercially acclaimed bands of the last decade and a half, are also one of the hardest working bands on the planet, having dashed from their Mexico City press conference (filled with screaming fans, paparazzi, and autograph hounds) straight to the Late Show w/ Stephen Colbert’s stage, where they performed their new single, “The Rover,” live for the first time ever this past Friday.  Watch the performance HERE and listen to the single HERE.
