News: Martine McCutcheon announces 5 UK dates for this autumn
2 min read
With the imminent release of her first album of original music in over 15 years, ‘Lost and Found’ (out 11th August on BMG) and her new single ‘Say I’m Not Alone’ flying at radio, Martine McCutcheon announces 5 UK dates for this autumn including a show at the Islington Assembly Hall November 14th.
Now 41, happily married, mother of a 2 year old, the time felt right to return to the studio. Martine has co-written most of the songs on the new album with her husband, the multi-instrumentalist/vocalist Jack McManus, and she has never sounded better!
New single ‘Say I’m Not Alone’, is a song like nothing Martine has ever recorded before; big, bold, brash, merging clanging guitars, thumping drums and a hard hitting lyric. Other album highlights include the rocky ‘Any Sign Of Life’, the beautiful ‘Stay With Me’ (which is a duet with Jack) and album closer ‘Rebellion’.
The album is a deeply personal record that deals with everything from relationships to Martine’s debilitating illness that saw her unable to work. “Life brought this album about very gradually,” explains Martine. “It was a really unconscious thing; I started writing the songs at a time in my life when I’d lost everything.”
