GRAMMY® Award-winning multi-platinum superstar DJ/producer Tiësto is joining forces with Columbia Records/Sony Music Nashville artist-songwriter Alana Springsteen for their new single, “Hot Honey,” available now HERE alongside an official music video that premiered on MTV.

“Hot Honey” melds Tiësto’s signature electronic sound and his ability to experiment in an expansive variety of genres, with the soulful Country tone and top-tier songwriting that’s positioned Springsteen as a fast-rising one-to-watch in Country music.

 

“I’ve always been drawn to fun/party side and the authenticity of Country music, so when I had the opportunity to team up with Alana Springsteen to make a Country dance song, I was super excited!” said Tiësto. “Alana has an incredible voice, which is precisely the texture this song needed, and I respect her abilities as a songwriter as well as her artistry. This is a different sound for me but as you know by now, I like to explore and am inspired by all different genres when making dance music! I hope you enjoy this song as much as we did creating it.”

 

“How often do you get the chance to collaborate with one of the most iconic DJs of all time? When Tiësto reached out to see if I’d want to get creative with him on ‘Hot Honey,’ I saw it as the most invigorating opportunity. I’ve always loved exploring sonically and being able to do that with dance music while staying true to my Country roots – that’s what excites me about being an artist and songwriter,” shares Springsteen. “I’m honored that Tiësto trusted me with this song, and I can’t wait to sing it live at one of his insane shows!”

With a voice dubbed “the future of country music” by PEOPLE, Springsteen’s three-part debut album, TWENTY SOMETHING, earned her critical acclaim including NPR, which named the title-track as one of “The Best Songs of 2023” in All Songs Considered. As an in demand emerging talent that’s headlined to sold-out crowds globally and supported tours across multiple genres, her innate ability to connect continues to prove E! News’ title as “one of Nashville’s most buzzworthy emerging artists.”

 

Following the release of “Hot Honey,” Tiësto will celebrate his internationally chart-topping career with Prismatic, an epic four-hour DJ set slated for two exclusive performances at Queens, NY’s Forest Hills Stadium (October 25) and Morrison, CO’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre (November 15). The landmark Prismatic set marks the beginning of a new milestone in Tiësto’s career while giving fans a taste of what’s to come and a chance to reminisce on where it all started. The experience will be an epic 4-hour DJ set that takes fans on a sonic journey through the eras of his career, where they will witness Tiësto at peak creativity and freedom with his set – like nothing they’ve ever heard at one of his festival or club performances.

 

In addition to Prismatic, Tiësto is currently traveling the globe on a non-stop series of live dates, including headline sets, multiple Las Vegas residencies, and top-billed festival performances around the globe.

GRIFF RELEASES DEBUT ALBUM “VERTIGO” OUT NOW!

Griff releases debut album, vertigo
Watch the visualiser for focus track, ‘Tears For Fun’

vertigo world tour + Sabrina Carpenter US tour confirmed

 

“A magnified, full-bodied sound that has progressed in step with Griff’s own growth…sends Griff’s voice to the stars” – NME
“Magnificently bombastic” – The Guardian
“Well worth the wait; a collection that highlights Griff’s knack for seemingly effortless pop hooks, lyrics that can make you laugh and cry” – DIY

Stream vertigo: https://griff.lnk.to/vertigoalbum

Watch the visualiser for ‘Tears For Fun’ HERE

Griff has today released her debut album, vertigo, which is available now on Warner Music. The British pop star’s landmark project lands alongside a visualiser for ‘Tears For Fun’, with Griff recently sharing new single ‘Anything’ and opening for Taylor Swift at her iconic Eras tour. Griff is set for a whirlwind run of in-store events launching vertigo this week, having also been invited to tour around the US later this year by Sabrina Carpenter: her vertigo world tour continues this summer, with dates across Australia, America, Europe and the UK already announced, including a London show at Alexandra Palace on November 13th.

vertigo confirms Griff as the next great British pop star. Moving through the cycles of melancholy, disorientation, euphoria and self-discovery, it’s a Coming of Age journey that Griff has taken fans on ever since she broke through over the pandemic. With a 360-approach on everything from production, fashion and design to the spiral motif long connecting vertigo in plain sight – right down to her signature hairstyle – Griff’s debut album turns the tumultuousness of young adulthood into a vibrant source of power.

 

Such moments of catharsis are evident on focus track ‘Tears For Fun’, a contemplation on the future, faith and whether things will turn out OK in the end, as promised. Its existential angst is set to the kind of anthemic and ultimately uplifting songwriting that is weaved throughout vertigo: from the euphoric ‘Anything’ – the lengths young love will take you to – to ‘Miss Me Too’ (about the little-discussed irony of growing more confused, as you purportedly grow older and wiser). Yet giving such feelings a clear voice has proved to be Griff’s turning point: the album’s roller-coaster title track literally names that upside-down sensation in your stomach (vertigo) and with it, the emotional breakthrough needed to discuss such experiences openly.

 

What emerges from vertigo is the importance of perspective, its spiral-motif less an unravelling than a hopeful symbol of eternal renewal, with infinite opportunities for change. And as she joins the likes of Taylor and Sabrina on the road – not to mention her own huge run of shows – Griff is now set to share her stories of generational vertigo with more people than ever before. Chronicling those first loves, losses, disasters and triumphs, vertigo is a life-affirming pop record whose inner spiral sparks Griff’s ascent.

Check out the track-list for vertigo below (including UK exclusive CD with 3 bonus tracks via HMV), catch Griff live on tour later this year, and stay tuned for more to follow soon.

GRIFF RELEASES NEW SINGLE ‘ANYTHING’ FROM HER FORTHCOMING ALBUM ‘vertigo’ out July 19th

Written by Warner PR on . Posted in News.

Griff shares new single, ‘Anything’

Sabrina Carpenter tour, Taylor Swift show + headline tour also confirmed

Debut album, vertigo, out July 19th on Warner Music

“Griff exists in the lineage of Lorde’s hyper-specific and emotional lyricism, as well as Taylor Swift’s knack for a killer hook” – Rolling Stone

“Magnificently bombastic” – The Guardian
“A magnified, full-bodied sound that has progressed in step with Griff’s own growth…sends Griff’s voice to the stars” – NME
“Recalls Robyn in its devastating one-two of euphoria and melancholy” – Sunday Times

Stream ‘Anything’ HERE 

Pre-order vertigo: https://griff.lnk.to/vertigoalbum

Griff has today shared anthemic new single, ‘Anything’, taken from her much-anticipated debut album vertigo (out July 19th on Warner Music). Having been hand-picked to open for Taylor Swift at her upcoming Wembley Stadium residency (June 22nd), Griff has also just been announced to open for Sabrina Carpenter around the US later this year. Griff’s vertigo world tour continues this summer, with intimate in-store events surrounding release recently-added and a London show at the iconic Alexandra Palace set to follow on November 13th.

‘Anything’ explodes the bargaining-phase of a formative relationship, its epic synths and locomotive drums driving home the lesson (unbeknownst to the narrator) that you need only ever be enough for yourself. Dramatic but euphoric, it’s a perfect preview of Griff’s debut album vertigo, which documents the trial-and-error process of growing up but always hinges on knowing yourself first. “Anything’ is about the idea that you would go to any length to make someone care for you, but they don’t realise the power they hold,” Griff comments. “At a young age I think there’s often a bit of imbalance, and I wanted the song to capture the intensity of those young relationships.”

 

Before Griff’s debut album had a name – or its titular first single, even – it had a feeling: vertigo. That pit-of-your-stomach, up-is-down sense that the world is spinning faster than you can keep up with, and your own place in it has never felt less secure. It’s a journey of self-discovery that Griff has taken fans on ever since, building the three volumes of her landmark project in real-time and weaving songs that resonated with the vertigo arc into work that moves through melancholy and fear into healing and joy. A coming-of-age album shaped for complex times, vertigo witnesses Griff scaling new creative heights and – as she joins Taylor and Sabrina on tour – cement her promise as the next-up of UK Pop.

 

With a 360-approach on everything from production, fashion and design to the spiral motif long connecting vertigo in plain sight – right down to her signature hair style – Griff’s debut album turns the tumultuousness of young adulthood into a source of power. Recent single ‘Miss Me Too’ is a euphoric, existential banger about the little-discussed irony of losing confidence as you supposedly grow older and wiser, and was accompanied by a beautifully choreographed video physically exorcizing such emotions. Throughout the record, the BRITs Rising Star winner draws on her sideways origin-story, from her unorthodox Chinese-Jamaican outsider-status growing up to launching an international music career from the confines of her bedroom. That tenacious, no-nonsense talent always wise beyond her years also sounds – crucially – like she is living: free of expectation, and moving through a world in which there is no one way to make your debut album or to be yourself.

 

Check out full track-list for vertigo below, catch Griff live on tour later this year, and stay tuned for more to follow soon.

CHARLI xcx drops surprise version of ‘The girl, so confusing’ version with Lorde out now

Written by Warner PR on . Posted in News.

Charli xcx today releases The girl, so confusing version with lorde HERE. 

The new track version brings the pair together for the first time, and follows hot on the heels of the release of Charli’s critically acclaimed sixth studio album; ‘BRAT’.

You can purchase and stream ‘Brat and it’s the same but there’s three more songs so it’s not’ HERE.

You can purchase and stream ‘BRAT’ HERE.

“A masterpiece that understands how a hard persona can offer protection” – The Guardian – 5*

“With her sixth album, Charli xcx transcends all narratives and delivers a hit. BRAT is imperious and cool, nuanced and vulnerable, and one of the best pop albums of the year.” – Pitchfork – ‘Best New Music’

“Charli has crafted a perfect pop album” – Daily Telegraph – 5*

“A hyperpop roller coaster of post-Saturn return, early-thirties anxieties, and It-girl bravado” – Rolling Stone

After a fearless campaign that has seen Charli cause roadblocks around the world with her pop-up ‘PARTYGIRL’ DJ sets, break the internet with viral videos and single reworks featuring the likes of Addison Rae, Robyn, Yung Lean, Julia Fox, Chloë Sevigny, Rachel Sennot and Skream & Benga and introduce a new tone of green to the cultural lexicon, her eagerly awaited album finally arrived last Friday to a fanfare of acclaim.

In a slew of striking five star reviews, The Guardian lavish praise on the “insecurity-obliterating anthems by pop’s most human superstar”, DORK label the album “an in-your-face instant cult classic” and DIY applaud it as “an exhilarating ode to the multiple facets of club culture that have formed the foundations for everything Charli has become over the best part of two decades”. In addition, the plethora of doting reviews see Rolling Stone commend BRAT as “a confessional LP that never loses its energy” and Financial Times brand the record “one of her best”.

To celebrate the release of ‘BRAT’ on Friday, Charli brought her now infamous ‘PARTYGIRL’ club night to London’s HERE at The Outernet for a back to back performance from Charli, A. G. Cook, George Daniel and Finn Keane, with a special surprise appearance from Shygirl.

The new album ‘BRAT’ includes the hit single ‘Von dutch’ – the brash and synth heavy first taste of the record – alongside recent releases ‘Club classics’, ‘B2b’ and ‘360’. In addition, Charli has released a selection of viral reworks of the singles from ‘BRAT’ including ‘The von dutch remix with addison rae and a. g. cook’ and ‘The 360 remix with robyn and yung lean’.

In support of ‘BRAT’, Charli will be embarking on her biggest ever headline shows in arenas throughout the UK in November and December as well as teaming up with longtime collaborator Troye Sivan for their highly anticipated co-headline US arena tour ‘Charli XCX & Troye Sivan Present: Sweat’, including a newly announced second show at The Kia Forum in Los Angeles due to phenomenal demand. Tickets can be found HERE.

Charli threw a momentous Boiler Room in New York’s Brooklyn in February to launch the ‘BRAT’ campaign with A. G. Cook, George Daniel, Finn Keane and Doss. The show broke the record for the most ever RSVPs to a Boiler Room event, with over 40k people registering to attend. Featuring special guest appearances from the likes of Addison Rae and Julia Fox, the show has easily become one of the viral moments of the year. You can watch the full stream of ‘Boiler Room & Charli XCX Presents: PARTYGIRL’ HERE.

Alongside her new album, Charli has been working on multiple film & TV projects following the breakout success of her Barbie soundtrack contribution ‘Speed Drive’ last year. She is co-executive producing the score for the A24 film ‘Mother Mary’ with Jack Antonoff and also producing original music for Benito Skinner’s series ‘Overcompensating’ on Prime Video. In addition, Charli will star in the Daniel Goldhaber remake of 1978 cult horror film ‘Faces of Death’.

Avant-pop and electronic superstar Charli xcx has become an iconic figure in the arts, having helped expand the landscape of popular music over the last decade by seamlessly traversing the underground and mainstream with her artistic output. Over the course of a trailblazing career, the multi-hyphenate creative has earned critical acclaim for her innovative style and entrepreneurial spirit and seen her forward-thinking approach reshape pop culture in the process.

Her lasting impact was cemented last year when Charli was honoured with the Visionary Award at the annual Ivor Novellos in London, while she also received the Powerhouse Award at Billboard’s Women In Music ceremony in March and the ASCAP Global Impact Award last month.

‘Brat and it’s the same but there’s three more songs so it’s not’ Tracklist:

 

  1. 360
  2. Club classics
  3. Sympathy is a knife
  4. I might say something stupid
  5. Talk talk
  6. Von dutch
  7. Everything is romantic
  8. Rewind
  9. So I
  10. Girl, so confusing
  11. Apple
  12. B2b
  13. Mean girls
  14. I think about it all the time
  15. 365

Coldplay have today announced the release of their highly-anticipated tenth album, Moon Music. The record will land in stores and on streaming services on October 4, 2024.

The album’s first single, feelslikeimfallinginlove, will be released globally on Friday, June 21. The single can be presaved here. The band performed the song for the first time last night during their sold out stadium show at Budapest’s Puskás Aréna.

Moon Music, which was produced by Max Martin, is available to pre-order everywhere now, with a limited number of hand-signed editions available from the official Coldplay Store, at store.coldplay.com.

NEW FORMATS AND NEW SUSTAINABILITY STANDARDS

In tandem with Coldplay’s ground-breaking sustainability measures on their current tour – which has so far produced 59% less CO2e emissions than their previous stadium tour – the band have gone to great lengths to make the physical release of Moon Music as sustainable as possible.

This will be the world’s first album released as a 140g EcoRecord rPET LP, with each copy containing nine recycled PET-plastic bottles recovered from post-consumer waste. This will prevent the manufacture of more than 25 metric tonnes of virgin plastic, and provide an 85% reduction in manufacturing process CO2 emissions/kg compared to traditional 140g vinyl.

Additionally, the band have collaborated with long-time partners The Ocean Cleanup to create an additional format: the Notebook Edition EcoRecord rPET LP. The rPET for this edition comprises 70% river plastic, intercepted by The Ocean Cleanup from the Rio Las Vacas, Guatemala, and prevented from reaching the Gulf of Honduras and the Atlantic Ocean.

The CD editions of Moon Music will be the world’s first to be released on EcoCD, created from 90% recycled polycarbonate, sourced from post-consumer waste streams. This will provide at least a 78% CO2/kg emission reduction, and avoid the manufacture of more than five metric tonnes of virgin plastic.

LIMITED FIRST EDITION RELEASE

In an effort to reduce waste, the first edition run of Moon Music (both EcoRecord rPET LP and EcoCD) will be strictly limited and produced at a higher specification than any future editions. All First Edition EcoRecord rPET LP products will be individually numbered.

*Moon Music is available to pre-order now in four physical formats, all clearly marked as First Edition, with all EcoRecord rPET LP products individually numbered:

 

–        Standard EcoCD

–        Standard Numbered EcoRecord rPET LP

–        Notebook Edition EcoCD

–        Notebook Edition Numbered EcoRecord rPET LP+ EcoCD

 

The Notebook Edition (EcoCD and EcoRecord rPET LP) comes as a casebound hardback book. The book is a faithful replica of Chris Martin’s original studio notebook, featuring 28 pages of unseen notes, lyrics and illustrations from the album’s writing and recording process. The Notebook Edition also includes additional voice notes and demos from the album’s recording sessions, providing a special insight into the music’s development.

 

All formats are available to pre-order now on the band’s Official Store, with a limited number of hand-signed versions available, at store.coldplay.com.

 

Moon Music is Coldplay’s first album since 2021’s Music Of The Spheres, which spawned the US Number One single with BTS, My Universe, and was nominated for Album of the Year at the Grammy Awards. Music Of The Spheres has already accumulated more than four billion streams.

As a solo artist, Leigh-Anne has quickly amassed over 65M+ global streams, earnt two UK top 40 singles and graced the cover of countless publications including Rolling Stone UK, Glamour and Tush. Experimenting with new sounds, ‘Don’t Say Love’ and ‘My Love’ have so far seen Leigh-Anne embrace genres such as Garage and Afrobeats. ‘Stealin Love’ showed a more raw and honest side of Leigh-Anne as she explored the darker sides to love, while ‘Forbidden Fruit’ is a passionate and sultry banger which sees Leigh-Anne surrendering to temptation. ‘Stealin Love’ and ‘Forbidden Fruit’ are the first taste of an upcoming collection of songs that perfectly showcases Leigh-Anne’s artistry and sonic direction as an artist.
