COLDPLAY REVEAL INCREDIBLE ‘UP&UP’ VIDEO
WATCH THE SURREAL NEW VIDEO NOW

Coldplay have today revealed the amazing video for Up&Up, the anthemic third single from their current album, A Head Full Of Dreams.

Created by Vania Heymann and Gal Muggia, the video is a poignant, surrealist montage which alludes to contemporary issues. It also features racehorses galloping on water and a popcorn-spouting volcano.

Up&Up is the closing track from A Head Full Of Dreams, which has reached Number One on iTunes in more than 90 countries, sold more than 3.5 million copies and cemented Coldplay’s position as Spotify’s most-streamed band in the world. The song features a host of guest appearances, including vocals from Beyoncé and legendary Gimme Shelter singer Merry Clayton, as well as a guitar solo from Noel Gallagher.

Having begun with a record-breaking run of dates in Latin America, Coldplay’s A Head Full Of Dreams tour resumes in Nice on May 24. The tour will then take the band across Europe and the US, including four sold-out nights at London’s Wembley Stadium. More than two million tickets have already been sold for the tour. Coldplay will also headline Glastonbury Festival for a record-breaking fourth time in June.

David Guetta & Zara Larsson will perform ‘This One’s For You’ at a free concert in Paris on June 9th

——————————————————————————————————

UEFA EURO 2016’s music ambassador and world’s biggest electronic music artist, David Guetta, is proud to unveil the tournament’s official song, ‘This One’s For You’ featuring Zara Larsson, which will be available to buy and stream from May 13th.

Recorded with the help of over one million fans from around the world via a special online online app designed by UEFA, ‘This One’s For You’ reinforces the same themes of unity and togetherness that form the cornerstone of UEFA’s footballing community.

The song will be performed by David Guetta & Zara Larsson at both the UEFA EURO 2016 opening and closing ceremonies at the Stade de France, as well as at a free concert in Paris on the Champ de Mars, underneath the Eiffel Tower, on June 9th. It will also be integrated throughout the tournament, including during the opening and closing sequences for every TV match broadcast. The fan recordings will then feature as part of a special goal celebration music edit that will be played in stadiums every time a goal is scored, meaning that fans from all over the world will be helping to create a unique atmosphere inside the tournament stadiums.

About David Guetta

Recently nominated for three awards at 2016’s Billboard Awards, including Top Dance / Electronic Artist, Top Dance / Electronic Album and Top Dance / Electronic Song, David Guetta ranks as the world’s biggest DJ and performing artist.

Boasting over 55 million fans on Facebook and 4 million followers on Instagram, as well as a sales career of 9 million albums, 40 million singles, 2 billion streams on Spotify and 4.3 billion official views on YouTube, he has won 23 different industry awards during his career so far.

Looking ahead to the summer, David Guetta has also recently announced two Ibiza residencies; his legendary FMIF! party at Pacha Ibiza, which runs from June 2nd to October 6th, and BIG at Ushuaia, which kicks off on June 27th before drawing to a close on August 29th.

About Zara Larsson

Whilst having three songs in the UK Top 40 simultaneously, Zara Larsson was hailed “the queen of the charts” by The Guardian back in April. Her brilliant debut solo single ‘Lush Life’ peaked at #3 in the UK. Globally it has reached over 172 million views on YouTube, has gone platinum in 15 countries and has reached the Top 10 in 18 markets.

Her duets with Tinie Tempah and MNEK, ‘Girls Like’ and the Platinum selling ‘Never Forget You’ both peaked at #5 and show no signs of dropping out of the charts. Last month she was unavoidable on UK TV screens performing on The Voice UK and The Jonathan Ross Show on the same night.

The latest single is a testimony to the rising pop queen’s melodious vocals. Jam-packed with hooks and an instantly infectious chorus, it is a sign of big things to come from the Swedish sensation. Zara has safely earned her place as one the biggest rising stars of 2016 and it is only just the beginning.

The Staves Release 3-Track EP Sleeping In A Car on May 13th

UK-based band’s 18-City North American tour begins June 3rd

“Ethereal, angelic, and otherworldly. They are simply astonishing.”—Stereogum

Nonesuch Records releases “Sleeping in a Car”, a three-song EP from the English trio The Staves, on May 13, 2016. The EP is the follow-up to the band’s 2015 Nonesuch debut If I Was, of which the New York Times said “the songs are illuminated from within,” and Magnet praised, “The perfection just goes on and on until you start to wonder: Are they human?” “Sleeping in a Car” was recorded in Eau Claire, WI, at Justin Vernon’s April Base studio and also at Urchin Studios in London. The Watford, England–based sisters—Emily (vocals, keyboards), Jessica (vocals, guitar, keyboards), and Camilla (vocals, guitar, ukulele) Staveley-Taylor—will embark on a 18-city North American tour beginning June 3. Stops include Minneapolis, Washington, Nashville, and New York, among others, along with the Firefly, Newport, and Eaux Claires festivals.

“Sleeping in a Car” is available to pre-order digitally from iTunes; physical CDs will be available exclusively at the Staves’ shows.

The sisters said of the EP, “These songs reflect the transient nature of travelling. Fleeting moments, like a slide show—reflections in car windows, streetlights passing in rhythm, stolen phone calls, late nights. Feelings of displacement and a disconnect— living in some sort of alternate state of reality. But underneath it all is the feeling of adventure and making your own rules and how dizzying and freeing that can be.”

The Staves released their first full-length album, Dead & Born & Grown, produced by Glyn and Ethan Johns, in 2012. The Sunday Times called it “a debut of stellar beauty and hidden depths.” The band then spent much of the next three years touring the world, including opening spots with the Civil Wars, Ben Howard, and Bon Iver.

During the Bon Iver run, the sisters formed a bond with Vernon, who invited them to visit April Base, where he ultimately produced If I Was. Following its release, The Staves performed at a string of international festivals, including Glastonbury and Eaux Claires, before joining Florence and the Machine’s sold-out UK arena tour. In addition to the North American dates, they play Guy Garvey’s Meltdown Festival in London this summer (June 14).

FOY VANCE UNVEILS VIDEO FOR “SHE BURNS” STARRING LUCY HALE (‘PRETTY LITTLE LIARS’)

NEW ALBUM ‘THE WILD SWAN’ TO BE RELEASED 13 MAY ON GINGERBREAD MAN RECORDS

Pre-order the album here

Foy Vance has unveiled the video for “She Burns”, the lead track from his Gingerbread Man Records debut album The Wild Swan, to be released 13 May. Directed by Gus Black, the video was shot on location in Los Angeles, CA and stars actor/musician Lucy Hale from ABC Family/Netflix’s hit series ‘Pretty Little Liars’.

The second album to be released on Ed Sheeran’s new label Gingerbread Man Records, The Wild Swan was recorded in Nashville’s legendary Blackbird Studios and produced/mixed by GRAMMY Award-winner Jacquire King. Recording legend Elton John is the album’s Executive Producer, and Vance will be supporting Elton on his Wonderful Crazy Tour this summer. The Wild Swan is the follow up to Vance’s 2013 Glassnote Records release, Joy of Nothing, which won the inaugural Northern Ireland Music Prize that year.

With production inspired by one of Vance’s favourite albums, Tom Waits’ Mule Variations, the wonderfully natural sounding The Wild Swan offers ample evidence as to why Vance is so celebrated by his peers as a songwriter and lyricist. It opens with “Noam Chomsky Is A Soft Revolution”, a rock’n’blues roll-call of musical, philosophical, literary and polemical insurrectionists. It stops off with “Coco”, a tender, campfire song written for the daughter of good friend Courtney Cox (Coco is a friend of Vance’s own daughter, Ella). And it ends with a dash of uillean pipes and “The Wild Swans On The Lake”, a stop-you-in-your-tracks breath of Celtic balladry inspired by WB Yeats’ poem ‘The Wild Swans At Coole’. In between, Vance gets up close and personal on the hymnal “Burden” and the ancient-but-modern “Be Like You Belong”, his soulful rasp weaving through pedal-steel and simple piano chords.

Foy Vance live:
May 12 London, Hoxton Hall (SOLD OUT)
June 10 Lincolnshire Showground, Lincoln (supporting Elton John)
June 11 Grace Road, Leicestershire County Cricket Club, Leicester (supporting Elton John)
June 12 Longleat, Near Warminster, Wiltshire (supporting Elton John)
June 14 Echo Arena, Liverpool (supporting Elton John)
June 19 Exeter Westpoint (supporting Elton John)
June 25 Meadowbank Stadium, Edinburgh (supporting Elton John)
June 26 Blenheim Palace, Woodstock (supporting Elton John)
August 20 Ottery St. Mary, Beautiful Days Festival

More headline dates to be announced soon.

We lost one of the most revolutionary talents of our time. Prince’s untimely passing is deeply shocking, reminding us that unique artists who chart their own course and move culture are precious few and irreplaceable.

He leapt onto the scene in 1978 and it didn’t take the world long to realize that pop music had changed forever. He played the studio like an instrument and shattered the definition of live performance. He defined a new kind of superstardom, with a transformative impact not just on music, but on video, film, and style.

Prince was the epitome of cool and mystery – an inspirational soul who created his own universe by bringing together different genres, races and cultures with a purity of sound and spirit unlike any other. His visionary gifts as a songwriter, vocalist, musician, performer and producer placed him in a league all his own.

We are honoured to have had Prince as a member of the Warner Bros. Records family during two eras of his astonishing career. We express our deepest condolences to everyone who loved him and join his family, friends and legion of fans in mourning his loss.

Much love from your Warner family.

PRESS RELEASE

Roxette cancel their summer tour.

Roxette were supposed to start the last leg of their massive RoXXXette 30th Anniversary Tour on June 3rd. However, singer Marie Fredriksson has been advised by her doctors to refrain from touring and as a consequence all the summer shows are cancelled. Their last performance was to be at the Grand Arena in Cape Town, South Africa on February 8 earlier this year.

Marie Fredriksson: ”It’s been an amazing 30 years! I feel nothing but joy and happiness when I look back on the Roxette world tours. All our shows and memories over the years will forever be a big part of my life. I’m particularly proud and grateful for coming back in 2009 after my severe illness and to have been able to take Roxette around the globe a couple of more times. Sadly, now my touring days are over and I want to take this opportunity to thank our wonderful fans that has followed us on our long and winding journey.
I look forward to the release of our album ”Good Karma” in June – for me it’s our best album ever!”

Per Gessle: Who would have thought this small town band from the Swedish west coast were to be still on the loose after 30 years! We’ve done mind-blowing gigs all over the world that has taken us far beyond our wildest and craziest dreams. I want to thank all our fellow musicians and collaborators on and off the road. Thanks also to our beautiful fans, all of you who have listened, encouraged, waited, travelled, all of you who have shared the singing, laughter, joy and tears. Most of you have been just as much part of Roxette as we have! Without you, nothing (and I mean nothing!) would have been possible. Most of all I want to thank the mighty Marie, the Amazon of the holy voice, the Goddess of superb rock performance, the liberated and magnificent interpreter of my humble words and music, for this magic carpet ride which took us to the top of all the mountains. My God, what a great view we’ve had! The joyride on the road is over now – but we sure had fun, didn’t we?

Marie Fredriksson and Per Gessle formed Roxette in 1986 and their debut single was ”Neverending Love”. In April 1989 they became an overnight sensation with ”The Look” and their huge international break was a fact. Since then they have toured the world again and again. Fans from all different corners of Planet Earth have been equally enthusiastic, faithful and devoted; from Birmingham to Buenos Aires, from Vancouver to Vladivostok, from Sydney to Stuttgart. Roxette performed a grand 557 shows in front of millions and millions of cheering people. 75 million albums sold, 51 singles released, four US Billboard number ones and countless top hits on worldwide charts make Roxette one of the most successful bands in the history of pop and rock.

Roxette’s latest single ”It Just Happens” was released on April 8 this year and their 10th studio album ”Good Karma” will be released on June 3.
