Sir Rod Stewart (knighted in 2016) celebrates 50 years as a solo artist this year. The legendary singer-songwriter is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, with more than 250 million records sold worldwide during a stellar career that includes nine #1 albums and 26 Top 10 singles in the U.K. Plus, 17 Top 10 albums and 16 Top 10 singles in the US. Rhino will honor the legendary singer-songwriter with a new album that lets fans hear Stewart’s biggest hits in a newly imagined way.

YOU’RE IN MY HEART: ROD STEWART WITH THE ROYAL PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA pairs classic vocal tracks from his most popular songs with new arrangements performed by The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. The result is a timeless record that retains the power, soul and passion that have fueled Stewart’s legacy from the start. The album also features a new version of the hit song “It Takes Two” featuring Robbie Williams and a brand-new song “Stop Loving Her Today” by Rod Stewart. The album will be released November 22 as a 1CD and as a 2CD that features the full orchestral arrangements. The music will also be available to download digitally and via streaming services.

Produced by Trevor Horn, YOU’RE IN MY HEART includes new orchestral versions of Stewart’s #1 U.K. hits: “Sailing,” “I Don’t Want To Talk About It” and “The First Cut Is The Deepest.” The collection also features versions of “Maggie May” and “Reason To Believe” – songs that topped the charts in both the U.K. and the U.S. in 1971.

YOU’RE IN MY HEART is packed with Stewart’s best-known songs, including versions of the Top 10 U.K. hits: “Tonight’s The Night (Gonna Be Alright) (a #1 smash in the U.S.), “The Killing of Georgie (Part 1 and II),” “You’re In My Heart (The Final Acclaim),” “I Was Only Joking,” “What Am I Gonna Do (I’m So In Love With You),” “Every Beat Of My Heart,” “Downtown Train,” “Rhythm Of My Heart” and a cover of Tom Waits’ “Tom Traubert’s Blues (Waltzing Matilda).”

Alongside Stewart’s major hits are fan favorites like: “Young Turks,” “Forever Young,” “If We Fall In Love Tonight,” a version of “Handbags And Gladrags” from his multi-platinum acoustic album, Unplugged…and Seated and “Stay With Me,” a Top 40 hit he recorded with the Faces in 1971.

After a triumphant stadium tour this summer, the release of YOU’RE IN MY HEART coincides with the continuation of Stewart’s biggest UK tour ever with live performances in November and December.  In addition, he returns to Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, and a show this September at The Hollywood Bowl with a landmark reunion set with his former bandmate Jeff Beck.

Two-time GRAMMY® Award-nominated multiplatinum songstress Kelsea Ballerini releases her new single and music video entitled “homecoming queen?” today on Black River Entertainment. Kelsea will also play a huge show at BBC Radio 2 Live in Hyde Park on 15^th September.

Watch ‘homecoming queen?’ HERE

Backed by delicate acoustic guitar and a steady backbeat, intimate verses peel away a seemingly perfect prom queen veneer before the “elegant songwriter” (The New York Times) delivers a powerful and poetic reminder, “Not everything pretty sparkles and shines—and even the homecoming queen cries” (co-written by Ballerini, Nicolle Galyon, and Jimmy Robbins).

In the emotionally charged music video, Kelsea sits on a chair in an empty dressing room. From there, motion control allows for a seamless 360-degree panorama as Kelsea’s world transitions from the star people see on stage to the vulnerable real person who is behind closed-doors. Award-winning director Shane Drake (“Miss Me More”) was again tapped by Ballerini to bring this vision to life.

“homecoming queen?” is available everywhere HERE.

Watch it HERE.

As an undeniable vocalist, songwriter, and performer, Kelsea Ballerini elevates country for a new era with emotional songcraft, honesty, and classic grace. Since her gold-certified 2015 full-length debut The First Time, she has consistently made history. By 2019, she became the only female country artist to achieve three consecutive #1 songs from a debut album, notched a total of five number ones with the platinum “Miss Me More,” and the Grand Ole Opry welcomed her as their youngest current member. Not to mention, she garnered two GRAMMY® Award nominations, won two ACM Awards, and took home the iHeartRadio Music Awards honor for “Best New Artist.” 2017’s Unapologetically marked her second Top 5 debut on the Billboard Top 200. With multiple platinum singles, her total streams exceed two billion to date. In addition to touring alongside everyone from Kelly Clarkson to Keith Urban, she ascended to an arena headliner on The Miss Me More Tour. Everything paved the way for her third full-length, which promises to be her most personal yet.

Get ready for more music from Kelsea Ballerini very soon!

As they gear up to embark on their biggest headline tour yet, The Snuts unleash the video for their dynamic new anthem ‘Maybe California’ – out now on Parlophone Records.

Working with Rich Costey (Muse, Interpol, Biffy Clyro), the song is a true statement piece, oozing indie flair and elevating the band’s fresh and authentic sound, offering another insight to their highly-anticipated debut album which the band are currently recording. ‘Maybe California’ follows their previous single ‘All Your Friends’.

The video, directed by Ronan Corrigan and Hope Kemp, is one big slice of Americana – a homage to the Red White & Blue. Set in the queue of a drive-thru diner, the band watch the dichotomy of ‘fake’ social media portrayal vs ‘reality’ from the seats of their Mercedes Benz. Watch HERE.

The band have been laying waste to festival crowds throughout the summer, including the Edinburgh Summer Sessions with UK chart-topper Lewis Capaldi, as well as memorable sets at Reading & Leeds, Victorious Festival and their triumphant main stage performance at TRNSMT to 20,000 people which was dubbed by BBC News as “Snuts Day”.

Earlier this week, the band treated fans to a tiny warm up show at London’s Shacklewell Arms, preparing them for their biggest ever headline tour which kicks off September 12th in Sunderland. The tour will host sold out shows across the UK, and shifted a massive 2,000 tickets in just ten minutes on announcement – a solid demonstration of the hunger and desire from their rabid fanbase. The tour will also include their biggest show outside of their home of Scotland at London’s Scala on October 22nd. Undeniable evidence of their impressive ascent.

Following a successful set at Mosley Folk Festival last weekend, County Line Runner, aka singer-songwriter Adam Day, today releases his new single ‘Cold Dawn’ on KIDinaKORNER and Polydor Records.

Starting off with simple synths and building slowly, ‘Cold Dawn’ has a beautiful melancholic edge coupled with sombre lyrics. On the track Adam said, “’Cold Dawn’ is really about how some things have a way of catching up with you… This song I’d written and then kind of buried until my guitar player Sam asked about it during a recording session.  Some things you write and don’t want to re-live but Sam really connected with it and I’m glad that he helped bring it back.”

Listen to ‘Cold Dawn’ HERE

Named after a character from a US nineties TV show who robbed banks across county lines, the moniker summarises his place at a handful of intersections -upbeat energy versus introverted vulnerability, folk sensibilities versus rock ambition, with a nod towards post-punk and nostalgia for days gone by versus hope for the future.

With support from the likes of BBC Music, The Independent, RadioX, Beats1 and Clash Magazine, County Line Runner grace the stages of a handful of festivals this summer, including Reeperbahn Festival, Latitude and Mosley Folk Festival, before a headline tour in February, with a date at London’s Hoxton Bar & Kitchen on 24^th October.

Following blockbuster years led by multiple global smash singles & billions of streams worldwide, the UK’s leading producer/songwriter Jonas Blue, & hottest rising pop star HRVY, have come together to release the sensational end of summer hit ‘Younger’ – watch the lyric video here.

Spawned from a friendship that first blossomed on stage at Capital FM’s Summertime Ball, Jonas & HRVY have produced an electronic pop anthem that encapsulates the intense and unbridled feeling of being young and free during the summer time where the weight of all responsibility is lifted.

Having previously worked together on Jonas’ hits ‘Mama’, ‘Rise’ and ‘Polaroid’, ‘Younger’ was co-written with Sam Roman, one of the songwriting titans behind the biggest UK hit single of 2019, Lewis Capaldi’s ‘Someone You Loved’. Whilst Jonas has been in Japan cementing himself as the country’s biggest British export, playing major arena shows and breaking records selling more than Drake and Post Malone, Sam has been scoring gargantuan global hits, with further writing credits including songs for Rita Ora, Tom Walker, Demi Lovato, Khalid, Craig David, Little MIx, Olly Murs, Mary J Blige and many more. The two British songwriting powerhouses are reunited once more, and the results are phenomenal.

In an era of slow-building careers, Jonas Blue is an anomaly. Amassing an armoury of platinum hit singles with over 8 billion global streams and over 45 million singles sales – Jonas has become a mainstage DJ, pop powerhouse and critically acclaimed songwriter with hits including ‘Fast Car’, ‘Perfect Strangers’, ‘Mama’, ‘Polaroid’, his collaboration with Liam Payne, and Rise’ – one of summer 2018’s biggest global hits featuring Jack & Jack.

Jonas went on to release his debut album ‘Blue’ in November 2018, which is now on course to smash its way to silver status.

At just 20 years old, HRVY is already a global star. He has 4.5 million Instagram followers, over 2 million YouTube subscribers and more than 750 million combined streams to his name. Tipped as one of 2019’s BBC Radio 1 Brit List artists following his sold out Hammersmith Apollo show, huge international and UK radio airplay singles plus now BRIT certified Silver smash ’Personal’, which has now amassed more than 500 million combined streams. For HRVY, 2019 started as he means to go on, having already sold out shows in UK, Europe, Korea, Malta and having visited the USA, Canada, Mexico, Norway, Japan, Spain, Philippines, France, Netherlands, Holland, Sweden & Greece plus released a stream of singles including ‘Told You So’ which amassed over 3 million combined streams in its first week, ‘Don’t Need Your Love’ with Korean boyband NCT Dream and ‘I Miss Myself’ with NOTD plus spent the year in writing sessions planning for 2019 & 2020.

Party is the mantra, and euphoria is the state of mind. ‘Younger’ is about to be your feel good hit of the summer.

After the announcement of their 40th anniversary career box set and greatest hits collection, Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark (OMD) unveil the details of a limited edition 7” vinyl of their iconic debut single ‘Electricity’ – out September 27^th and available for pre-order now.

Side A features an original Factory Records version of ‘Electricity’, whilst side B offers up a brand new remix of ‘Almost’ by Vince Clarke. Vince noted that “OMD convinced me to switch to synths…’I thought I can do that. I can write songs like that.’” On the release Andy said, “For Paul and I, holding in our hands an actual vinyl record of a song we had written as 16 year olds was one of the greatest thrills of our young lives. Forty years later, that original garage recording still has a charming energy that makes us proud. We are honoured that Vince Clarke has created such a distinctive personal remix of the B side ‘Almost’.”

The announcement comes off the back of details of their upcoming career box set, ‘Souvenir’ and brand new greatest hits collection – out October 4th. The special box set will comprise of 5 CDs and 2 DVDs housed in a 10” box set, together with a hardback book, poster and a series of 10” prints. Pre-order at OMD.lnk.to/Souvenir

After flirting with electronica on his last album, James Blunt returns to what he does best on new album ‘Once Upon A Mind’, writing classic songs that touch both the heart and the head. The album’s first taste arrives in the shape of the breezy, ‘Cold’, an effervescent modern spin on love.

Listen to ‘Cold’ HERE

There’s a freshness that resonates throughout the eleven new songs that make up ‘Once Upon A Mind’, his 6^th album, released October 25^th on Atlantic Records. A UK tour for early 2020 will be announced shortly.

On the new album, James has worked with a variety of producers including Steve Robson, Jimmy Hogarth and TMS. Highlights are many and include the poignant ballad ‘Monsters’, the pop swagger of ‘5 Miles’ and the country tinged ‘Halfway.’ There’s a warmth that permeates the entire album, and a real sense of personality.

“I think this is the most honest album I have ever made.” James Blunt says.

“Back To Bedlam was similar in that I had been writing those songs for a while about my life experiences at that time, and they came together on my debut.  And every song on this album represents something that I’m currently going through or have recently experienced. It’s a very personal record, and I’m proud I can share it.”

James Blunt released that classic first album, ‘Back To Bedlam’, in the autumn of 2004 and soon after the single ‘You’re Beautiful’ became a global smash hit. He has sold over 23 million albums and has showcased his wit and charm more recently with his always engaging twitter account.

‘Once Upon A Mind’ Tracklisting:

1. The Truth
2. Cold
3. Champions
4. Monsters
5. Youngster
6. 5 Miles
7. How It Feels To Be Alive
8. I Told You
9. Halfway
10. Stop The Clock
11. The Greatest

The band have also revealed a lyric video for their latest single ‘Love Too Much’, the second track to be taken from ‘Cause and Effect’. Directed by Kinga Nowicka, the video stitches together clips sent in by fans from Keane’s online community ‘Thread’. Chosen at random, fans around the world were privately messaged individual lyrics from the song and asked to write them out in their own unique way, creating a beautiful patchwork-like video.

‘Love Too Much’ follows the hit single ‘The Way I Feel’, and was written by Keane, and produced by David Kosten and the band. The track is Keane at their best; piano-driven hooks elevated by Tom Chaplin’s unrivalled vocals and a chorus that sticks in your brain like glue.
