Sarah Close On Tour
RELEASED earlier this year's Sarah
Close's debut EP 'Caught Up' represented the perfect calling card
for this expressive singer's smart take on modern pop. It also provided the
foundations for bigger things ahead as it went to #1 on the Official Physical
Singles Chart while its lead track 'Call Me Out' soon reached 3.3
million streams at Spotify. Now Sarah Close builds on her recent momentum
by sharing the brand new track 'Only You'. Demonstrating the
dynamic and intuitive song writing talent that'll push her to the brink of
stardom, 'Only You' was written during a period in which Sarah
experienced a crisis of confidence, and it's a great example of her intimate,
but open lyricism. Sarah said that:- "It's about that decision when
you realise you're going to leave someone you're with. You know that it's not
working and the reason it's not working is that you don't like each other. On
paper you're right for each other, but it can't work, and even if it could work
you're not ready for it. And that's a painful thing to admit to yourself."
Emerging from a small village on the Isle of Wight, Sarah grew up physically
separated not just from the mainland; and the music industry; by a body of
water, but also from most of the island's social life. A she immersed herself in
music she couldn't immediately find an outlet for her passion. Instead she
started a YouTube channel to build a connection that she couldn't make in
person. Her following sprinted through numerous landmark statistics and
she now commands a following of over 750,000 subscribers. Local gigs soon
followed, including Bestival founder Rob Da Bank's Quay Arts Club night as well
as a set at Bestival itself, before Sarah relocated to London. Sarah's 1st major
London gig followed in April with a sold out show at The Camden Assembly. Now
she's set for her 1st full tour which includes a much larger London show at
Heaven as well as a homecoming show in Newport on the Isle of Wight.
