Artist News Gigs & Festivals One Liners Releases
One Liners: Kylie Minogue, Jorja Smith, King Krule, more
By Andy Malt | Published on Friday 19 May 2023
RELEASES
Kylie Minogue has released new single ‘Padam, Padam’. Her new album ‘Tension’ is out on 22 Sep.
Jorja Smith will release her second album ‘Falling Or Flying’ on 29 Sep. She is set to play four launch shows around the UK close to the release date, including one at Outernet in London on 4 Oct. Tickets are on sale now.
The Japanese House has released new single ‘Sunshine Baby’, featuring The 1975’s Matty Healy. “Sunshine Baby is my nickname for my dog, and my ex, and I always used to lay on the beach together being sunshine babies”, she says. “The chorus is kind of a submission to the end of our relationship, but singing it in a positive light. There’s a transience in every part of a relationship, and in the circle of everything it comes back around”. Her new album ‘In The End It Always Does’ is out on 30 Jun, and she will be touring the UK in October.
Jelani Blackman has released new single ‘Rise’, featuring Biig Piig. “Being in love and waking up next to the person you wanna be with and the sun’s out is one of the best feelings in the world”, he says. “Couldn’t have asked anyone better to share this song with; me and Biig Piig met last year at a festival, I think her voice and lyrics bring out all the feeling of that emotion”.
Ragz Originale has released new single ‘Radio Silence’, taken from his debut album ‘Bare Sugar’, which is set for release on 30 Jun. “Where do I even begin with this song?” he asks. “This is probably my favourite song from the album, in fact it is! It represents everything I stand for in sound design. Late night drive music at its finest, I wanted to create something aliens would dance to whilst creating art!”
King Krule has released new single ‘If Only It Was Warmth’. His new album ‘Space Heavy’ is out on 9 Jun.
Genesis Owusu will release new album ‘Struggler’ on 18 Aug, from which he has just put out new single ‘Leaving The Light’. He’s also announced that he will play Heaven in London on 15 Nov.
