Julia Biel Singing with Phil King Totnes FM Studio Lounge Friday 18 January 8.30pm |
PRESS
RELEASE
Singer hailed as the
‘next Norah Jones’ plays Totnes this weekend
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE –
MONDAY 14 2012: ONE
OF the UK’s most highly regarded singer/songwriters is performing at the Studio
Lounge in Totnes this Friday (18th January) in what can only be
described as a sensational line up to kick off gigs at the venue for 2013.
Described
by critics as the new Norah Jones, Julia Biel is set to release her second
album, a self-penned collection of jazzy/folk/pop songs.
Hailed by The Independent as “the best British vocalist to emerge in an
age”, her credits include featured lead vocals with Mercury Prize nominated
cult band Polar Bear, and
collaborations with Everything But The
Girl svengali Ben Wright.
The
Guardian wrote Julia has “a
voice of supreme subtlety and honeyed depth. Her mesmerizing voice and magnetic
stage presence should encourage many to follow where she leads . . . about to
hit the big time”.
Phil King |
Phil also has two albums under his belt and he
performs regularly in Paris, Zurich, Barcelona, and New York. Phil can also
count BBC Radio 2’s Bob Harris and BBC Radio 6 Music’s Steve Lamacq as huge fans.
Harris said simply: “Absolutely brilliant.”
And to kick the evening off will be Totnes’
very own Crow Puppets, who have created something of a stir around Devon since
forming in 2012, especially during an incredibly charming set at Live At The
Great Hall in Dartington last November. Crow Puppets is the folk/pop creation
of Cara Roxanne and Emma Marshall, and whisper it quietly, but they are going
places.
Tickets are £7 in advance and £9 on the door
and can be bought online at www.studioloungetotnes.com,
over the phone on 01803 862267 or by visiting the box office on Wills Road on
the Totnes Trading Estate.
This is a incredible night to open the 2013
season at the Studio Lounge, which welcomes some wonderful musical, theatrical and
poetical heroes over the coming year, including folk legend Steve Tilston,
Broadway multi-award winner Barb Jungr, the incredible Liz Lawrence, Lotte
Mullen, who is currently in production with Elton John on a film about her rise
through the musical ranks, and even the reformed 1990s pop icons Dodgy in June!
Plus, there’s lots, lots more coming from the Studio Lounge this year so keep
an eye on the listings at www.studioloungetotnes.com.
