Rebecca Ferguson Video Release:
Soulful X Factor darling Rebecca Ferguson has unveiled the video to her new track ‘Too Good to Lose’.
Following on from the release of her debut, self-penned album Heaven in early December, ‘Too Good to Lose’ once again demonstrates her excellent vocal abilities, which have clearly matured past the boundaries of the show that spawned her.
The single is out on on March 4 and is a combined release through Syco and Epic. The track is currently available for pre-order on iTunes.
Ferguson also begins her first ever UK tour tonight, continuing throughout February and March.
Charlene Soraia Live Session:
Following on from the release of her critically-acclaimed debut album Moonchild, singer-songwriter Charlene Soraia has recorded a live session of a new track entitled ‘Animal’.
This entirely new song does not feature on Soraia’s debut, but it does include the musician’s genuinely unique guitar skills on her much beloved baritone guitar (affectionately named Barry). Known to many as the girl who sang ‘Wherever You Will Go’ on the Twinings advert, this new track once again showcases her talent beautifully.
Soraia’s first headline UK tour kicked off on Sunday – unfortunately, all shows are now sold out, but she has announced further dates in bigger venues across the UK and Ireland in April, this time with a full band.
The Pains of Being Pure at Heart Remix EP:
Hip Brooklyn-based indie-pop quartet The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart have announced details of a new remix EP in support of Record Store Day 2012.
The remixes have been lifted from the group’s critically-acclaimed sophomore album Belong, released in March 2011. This new EP, entitled Acid Reflex, is set for release on Play It Again Sam, and will be available on limited edition coloured vinyl and digital download from Record Store Day onwards, which will be held this year on April 21.
The tracklisting for Acid Reflex is as follows:
1. Heart In Your Heartbreak (Twin Shadow Remix)
2. The Body (Violens Remix)
3. Too Tough (Saint Etienne Remix)
4. My Terrible Friend (Washed Out Remix)
The band are also playing a one-off UK show at O2 Academy Islington on March 8 – tickets are on sale now.
