New York, NY (Top40 Charts) You might say 2018 was a "FaB" year for the London songwriting/production duo of Fitzsimon and Brogan. With the summer release of their critically acclaimed album, "Big Blue World," FaB significantly raised their already skyrocketing interrnational profile. The duo's single, "Girl In a Gilded Cage" reached #1 on the iTunes Belgium singles charts, earning the duo an Indie
Music Hall of Fame Award, an Independent
Music Awards nomination, and a slot as an Emerging Artist in Billboard Magazine. Three singles from the album also received international airplay and worldwide radio charting, earning them status as one of the most exciting musical duos of the year.
Now, Neil Fitzsimon and Bee Brogan are back. Collectively known as FaB, Neil and Bee are about to release their most pop-friendly single and album to date. On May 10th, 2019, new single, "
This Is Love" will be available. It is taken from their upcoming Pat Collier-produced (Katrina and the Waves,
Robyn Hitchcock) album, "The Girl Who Shouted Love at the
Heart of the World" (May 24th, 2019, Monstre Sonore Records)
"Our main inspiration for, 'This is Love', was to write a song as uplifting and life-affirming, as Katrina and the Waves', 'Walking on Sunshine', which is a great favourite of ours," said Neil Fitzsimon. "And due to the fact that we were working with the very man, Pat Collier, who produced that track, it seemed like a marriage made in heaven."

Fitzsimon continues,"Various session players played on the album, including a trumpet player from the Royal College of Music. The most notable musician was Nick Muir, who played keyboards for Take That. He also composed a track which was included in the film, 'Trainspotting', which is now regarded as a classic of British Cinema. Nick now owns his own label and has carved out a highly successful career as a producer and DJ."
ABOUT FaB: Neil Fitzsimon, the songwriter, and Bee Brogan, the vocalist, aim to produce "Pure Pop For Now People." Preferring to remain faceless in an industry that holds image in high regard, the pair have gone on to form a songwriting/production partnership that led to placement of their songs in Film and TV, including a USA Sci-Fi Feature Film. They also wrote a musical, Jack Dagger, which was showcased at the Greenwich Theatre, London for the Musical Futures Award. It was also showcased at the Bridewell and the Royal College of
Music in London.
Recently, the duo had a track reach number 3 on a French national download chart. Their lyric videos for "Big Blue World" and "Girl in a Gilded Cage" both reached #2 on the Beat100.com World Videos chart, for which they were recognized by the Indie
Music Hall of Fame. The latter reached #1 on the Belgium iTunes singles sales charts. The Billboard Magazine Emerging Artists have been featured on the NBC
Radio and Westwood One
Radio networks. They've recently recorded tracks with long-time
David Bowie drummer, Woody Woodmansey.
