Tom Walker:
Debüt-Album "What A Time To Be Alive"
VÖ: 1. März 2019
Um den Release seines lang ersehnten und mehrfach verschobenen Debüt-Albums "What A Time To Be Alive" noch einmal an zu teasern erschien am Freitag das neue Video seiner Single "Just You and I", bevor der neue Longplayer am 1. März 2019 nachzieht. Wer den 27-Jährigen live erleben will, sollte sich bald Tickets für die Deutschland Tour im Mai zulegen - und dann heisst es: what a time to be alive!
Tom Walker: "Leave A Light On"
Tom Walker ging mit seinem Mega-Hit "Leave A Light On" 2018 komplett durch die Decke ging und wurde jetzt zurecht in seinem Heimatland für 2 Brit Awards nominiert (British Single und British Breakthrough)
The unrelenting wave for Manchester’s favourite son sees him placed alongside Stormzy, Anne-Marie and Sampha on BBC Radio 1’s officiate BRIT List amid massive critical acclaim from heavyweight tastemakers incl. The Sunday Times, Pigeons & Planes, Wonderland, Shortlist and MTV. Tom would go on to mark his breakout year with his first major US TV performance on The Today Show – playing three sold-out shows in LA and New York before returning to London for a raucous full house at Omeara.
Directed by Ollie Wolf of Caviar, “Heartland” gets the kind of tumultuous, emotive visuals you’d expect for a people’s anthem bursting at the seams with feeling and struggle. "I wanted to bring to life the emotive lyrics by celebrating Britain's beauty but also exploring some of the political issues we are facing in the UK at the moment” states Ollie. Shot in the heartland of Britain, the video follows an unlikely pairing through their politically charged journey to a better life. Quiet heroism, English pubs and potential kidnap gives "Heartland” the feel of a gritty and real homegrown epic that can’t help but match the excitement around the man himself.
Touring the UK in November, there’s simply no denying the noise that Tom’s making at the moment. With the kind of natural presence and charisma that most artists would kill for, it’s nevertheless the young artist’s humility and instinct for vivid storytelling that places him firmly and deservedly into the serious breakthrough lists for this year.
A star in the making, make no mistake.
British newcomer Tom Walker continues to underline his name as one of the stories of the year with a huge new video for his new track "Heartland", co-written and produced by Naughty Boy. Currently blazing up the BBCR1 playlist, this stand-alone track following the release of his debut EP “Blessings” on Relentless Records is looking like the tipping point towards something truly special for one of the UK’s brightest new talents.
