Disclosure 'F For You' taken from No 1 album 'Settle. New Video/Tour Dates

Picking the next single off their critically acclaimed #1 debut album ‘Settle’ was likely a bit of a headache forDisclosure. With a wealth of captivatingly slick cuts to choose from, including collaborations with some of the country’s most unique vocalists, the Lawrence brothers have decided to keep their latest release a truly family affair - ‘F For You’, released August 18th on PMR Records, features Howard Lawrence on vocals, the first time either of the duo has assumed full singing duties on a track. In another first, the accompanying video steps away from the character-led narratives of previous singles like ‘You & Me’ and ‘White Noise’ to bring Disclosure themselves on to our screens. Lending an up-close glimpse at the pair’s exceptional live set-up, ‘F For You’ provides the soundtrack as we witness the kind of performance that has entranced audiences across the planet over the past year or so. Upon release, ‘Settle’ has wasted no time in becoming a global sensation, and has already become certified Gold in the UK within the space of two weeks on sale, as well as drawing praise from all quarters. Disclosure have already embarked on an extensive lap of honour which sees them take in no fewer than 39 festival appearances around the world this summer, ahead of a return to the UK in November for their biggest headline tour to date, kicking off in Bristol on the 16th and drawing to a triumphant close on the 28/29th for a double-header at the O2 Academy Brixton.

YOUNGBLOOD HAWKE Single “We Come Running” /Live Dates July

Sam Martin, one half of the songwriting team behind Youngblood Hawke’s debut album ‘Wake Up’, which charted at #11 on the iTunes album chart in the US (it was Editors Choice) – describes their sound the best: "It has elements of pop, rock, indie and dance." The band’s first single to be taken from the album ‘We Come Running’ - which will also be released on 5th August, already has a string of accolades behind it including over 1.8 million YouTube video hits, a Top 25 in Billboard’s Hot AC chart, a Gold sales status in Australia and features in an international Coke commercial due to hit the UK this summer, encapsulates that sentiment. A propulsive beat builds alongside shimmering bells as Martin's massive refrain soars. "It's like a personal message to the band," the vocalist reveals. "It announces that if we work our asses off, they're going to hear the sound when we come running. We're going to get our chance." Alongside his longtime friend and multi-instrumentalist Simon Katz, the duo, who saw critical acclaim and worldwide success as founding members of Iglu & Hartly and had a Top 5 hit in the UK with ‘In This City’ in 2010 before the group dissolved, spent the following summer feverishly penning songs in Katz’s Los Angeles studio for what would become Youngblood Hawke’s debut album. Galvanized and reinvigorated, they emerged with over one-hundred ideas and a fresh perspective altogether. Martin admits, "We didn't begin by saying, “We're going to start a new band'. It was more of an outlet to express ourselves. It was the most natural thing I've ever done. There was no plan." There didn't need to be a plan because their songs were so anthemic and uplifting. In early 2011, with Katz's childhood best friend Tasso on guitar, Alice on backup vocals and live percussion, and Iglu & Hartly touring drummer Nik, they began booking local gigs and releasing material. Based on the strength of the tunes and a completely organic buzz they sold out a string of nights at Silverlake hotspot, Satellite. Soon, Universal Republic Records contacted them and offered a deal. The quintet's moniker also reflects the glorious serendipity at the heart of its journey. Nodding to the Herman Wouk novel of the same name, it's utterly a propos. "I was looking for a new book to read," remembers Martin. "My dad called me out of the blue, and he was like, 'Your uncle's favourite book is Youngblood Hawke. You have to read it'. It really resonated with us as a story about an artist finding his way." At the end of the day, these artists have found their way in Youngblood Hawke, and the path is brighter than ever. "We've seen the bottom and the top," concludes Katz. "Things get bad, and then they get good again. The music is about being hopeful and never giving up." Youngblood Hawke kicked off 2013 supporting Keane on the US leg of their Strangeland Tour, followed by a Passion Pit tour and a series of shows at SXSW including an exclusive Spotify live stream event alongside Kendrick Lamar. This summer they will embark on a headline US tour before heading to the UK in July.
