LONDON, UK (Top40 Charts/ Atlantic Records UK) 21 year old North London singer/songwriter
Delilah is pleased to unveil details of her upcoming October tour in the UK. Her tour will kick off at the Leicester O2 Academy on Oct 20th and will see her play Birmingham, Manchester, Newcastle, Sheffield, Brighton, London's O2 Shepherd's Bush
Empire and conclude on October 29th at Bristol O2 Academy. She last toured the UK in the Spring, which included a date at London's KOKO that was sold out by 110%.
Ahead of the release of her debut album From the
Roots Up on July 30,
Delilah will be releasing her new single 'Inside My Love'. Originally recorded by 70's soul singer Minnie Ripperton, 'Inside My Love' is Delilah's own spin on the popular classic, 'Two People.'
Delilah will premiere the video of the single this week with an show-stopping video directed by Jake Nava. Many will know his work with
Beyonce including the video for 'Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)'.
Delilah played a fantastic show at London's Lovebox Festival on Saturday and if you missed out she will also be appearing at some of the best UK festivals this summer including Wireless on Saturday 7th June.
As well as purchasing her full length LP, fans can also get their mits on a special vinyl 12" vinyl only available from London record store Phonica. The tracklisting will include 'Inside My Love (Redlight remix)', 'Breathe (LV remix)', 'Love You So (Joe Goddard remix) and 'GO acapella'. It will be available on June 29th to coincide with a special event taking place. Watch this space for more details.
Also,
Delilah has unveiled her show-stopping new video for upcoming single 'Inside My Love', directed by Jake Nava.
Delilah says, "This video is raw, honest and passionate. Both Jake and I wanted to create something real and interesting. We didn't want to use a bag of tricks to make it look glossy. It's not perfect, and that's why it's so different! Working with Jake was easy from the beginning, I had a vision and he brought it to life! I hope people smile when they watch it, cos it definitely makes me smile!"
Jake Nava is an award-winning music video and film director who has worked with the likes of the Rolling Stones, Kylie, Alicia Keys,
Kanye West and Beyoncé, including the 'Crazy In Love' and 'Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)' videos.
Originally recorded by 70's soul singer Minnie Ripperton, 'Inside My Love' is Delilah's own spin on the popular classic, 'Two People.' It is co-produced by
Delilah and Mikey J and is released on 16th July through Atlantic Records to coincide with the release of her debut album, From The
Roots Up, which follows two weeks later. Also on the upcoming album will be her previous three singles, 'Go', 'Love You So' and 'Breathe.' From the
Roots Up is an extremely personal record, with every song on the 12-track album written or co-written by Delilah. Together with her close-knit team of producers (Science, Ballistiq and LV),
Delilah created the album's fundamental sound: dark, sparse, percussive, full of tiny details magnified by the acres of space surrounding them, all framing Delilah's own signature emotive voice as she sings about "love, lust, passion, and falling in and out of them all".
Parisian-born, London-raised Delilah's debut single 'Go' became a surprise runaway hit scoring her a top 20 hit and a permanence on the
Radio 1 & 1Xtra airwaves. Later singles such as 'Love You So' and 'Breathe' demonstrate the quality and sonic variety of her much anticipated debut LP.
Her first sold-out UK tour in May received amazing reviews in the broadsheets, resulting in the musical icon
Prince personally inviting
Delilah to support him on tour in Australia.
Following last weekend's performances at Lovebox and Parklife,
Delilah continues her run at all the big UK festivals this summer with slots at Wireless, Bestival, and BBC
Radio 1's Hackney Big Weekend. With her last London show at KOKO selling out at an impressive 110%, she has also just announced another string of headline shows in October. Full dates below.
