Her single ‘Giving it up’ is out soon and you should absolutely pre-order it. but for now listen to this on repeat, or indeed the whole session as it’s amazing.

Great news!! My Live EP is due to be released on the 16th June!! That's no time at all, and I'm not usually one to blow my own trumpet but it sounds and looks awesome! So proud of this record and I think you are gonna like it ;) For those who were in the audience your whoops and claps are exceptional! The first live video will be released very very soon so make sure you subscribe to my youtube channel (link below) to be the first to watch it. From one live gig to another… Last tuesday I saw Snarky Puppy live at Scala. It was easily the best gig I have ever been to in my life! So inspiring to see 850 people the same age as me dancing to this awesome music. This jazz rave! They were singing along to these elaborate melody lines so fluently - it was amazing. Nick said to me 'these guys speak music better than I speak English'! At one point the piano player Bill Laurence played a classical jazz solo intro to one of his own songs and the room fell completely silent. Once he had finished someone in the audience broke the silence with a sincere and quiet 'thank-you'. It was surreal but brilliant, and it made me remember that live entertainment is an amazing thing indeed. I have been performing all over London since I moved here and I've loved it. Its always different every time. I have a few gigs coming up starting with tonight (11/5/14) at The Worlds End in Finsbury Park: a song-writers night hosted by Kal Lavelle. The Metropolitan (Notting Hill) Thusday 15th May. The Troubadour (Earls Court) Tuesday 20th May. Biddle Bros (Hakney) on Wednesday 21st May. Hope to see a few familiar faces at these gigs :) Last time I blogged I said I was going to tell you what my song 'Alien' was about, but I am going to let you guys tell me what you think instead! No point in writing anything that isn't open to interpretation, so please comment and let me know what you think - the more obscure the more I'll like it! Here are the lyrics… Sometimes I think that you are an alien And you revolve round a different sun Speaking in tongues Filling my lunges Every time I breathe I know you like to think you control the stars And I'm from venus and you're from mars But the truths out there for you to see You're just another human like me And I'll stay by your side But all I need to know is that you're not going anywhere All I need to know is that you're not going anywhere Well the sky looks like a geometry paper When planes leave trails just to show that they've been there I can see why you'd want to be up there wasting time But do you think there could be room for two Out there we could talk it through Find out why you're scared to land How you gonna hold my hand from way up there. But all I need to know is that you're not going anywhere All I need to know is that you're not going anywhere Can't wait to hear your interpretations! I will send the winner a sneak preview of one of the songs from my EP so get cracking!
