Our soon to be massive, off-kilter soulful songstress is back with her third single on Wah Wah 45s, in advance of the much anticipated release of her debut LP, “Turn That Light Out”.
“All Or Nothing” comes in the shape of two heavy hitting remixes, from long time collaborator LenAfrosaxon, who delivers a straight up hip hop flavoured take, and sonic scientist Blue Daisy who comes through with something more heart wrenching, but a heavyweight head-nodder all the same.
Just enough to whet your appetite then for the full long-player, recorded live in the studio, and engineered by Ben “Nostalgia 77” Lamdin, and featuring Matthew Halsall, Magnus Dearness from new Wah Wah signings The Hackney Colliery Band, strings n things courtesy of The Heritage Orchestra string section, Part-Time Heroes pianist Stephen McCleery, a twelve strong choir, and of course, guitarist (and also producer of the album) Adam Scrimshire.
