New Video: ALICE ELLA (@alice_ella_) - Summer Sun

'Summer Sun' is the debut release from singer/songwriter ALICE ELLA.



Hailing from Horsham, West Sussex and now based in London, Alice has been working hard on building a career which has already taken many twists and turns, from writing and featuring on a DJ IRONIK EP to supporting JESSIE J in concert. She was also seen being surprised while performing by EMELI SANDE in a Mastercard TV ad campaign. 

But it is her own career that has always been at the forefront of her mind and at last we get to hear & see her very first official output. 

An autobiographical song (co-written by SEYE ADELEKAN who has previously worked with PALOMA FAITH & DAMON ALBARN), it is a mixture of jazz, soul and pop fused together to create something original, which is also what we get from this exquisite video directed by OLAN COLLARDY.




The single was recently launched with an exclusive gig in Mayfair, where Alice also performed a number of other new tracks all of which showed both her songwriting and star potential.

Here's an exclusive live version of 'Summer Sun' taken from the night.





The single is now available to buy on Amazon and will be available on itunes soon

New Video: LORELEI CARLSON (@LoreleiCarlson) - Open Your Eyes

Our new discovery of the week is L.A based singer/songwriter LORELEI CARLSON



As the daughter of diplomat parents, LORELEI grew up in a variety of countries from Australia to Switzerland to across South America, all of which have been influencial in creating a uniqueness to her sound.

Her latest release is 'Open Your Eyes' which is taken from her 2014 independantly released EP 'Dopamine'. The set also includes 4 other original tracks plus a partcularly daring cover of NIRVANA's 'Rape Me'

Like many of the tracks on Miss CARLSON's EP, the single was co-written with long term collaborator David Gielan and has a hypnotic, almost trip-hop sound (think MASSIVE ATTACK/PORTISHEAD) that is matched by her sublime vocal, pitched somewhere between SIA and LANA DEL RAY.


The video for the track has just been released and the beautifully created clip, full of stunning B&W visuals, is co-directed by LORELEI herself with Kikin Bartolo

The new video depicts Terri as the two sides of a conflicting personality, one encouraging and motivating the other to do as the song's title suggests.
