From boyband to Icon Mark Owen releases new single Magic

 From boyband to Icon  Mark Owen  releases new single Magic


Editor Katie Watkin's 10/8/22

Take That heartthrob Mark Owen has today released his brand new single, Magic, and what a track this is.  The track, was introduced by Mark live on air on the Zoe Ball show this morning for an exclusive first play, is the third offering from his forthcoming album and first solo record in over nine years.


Magic is track that guarantees to bring euphoric summer feels to listeners, as Mark’s  northern soulful vocals blended with the track’s catchy beat makes this a slinky, falsetto’d, disco-funk hip-shaker in which Mark channels his inner so what Bee Gee vibe.

The global icon has been speaking on his evolution as an artist, Mark explained: “I’ve really been trying to capture lots of different energies from all the shows I’ve seen. 

“I moved to LA with the intention of making a record out here,” he says. “LA was a whole new world for me.  It was about trying to find my way in a place I’d never been before, working in studios that I’d never been in before, with people that I’d never worked with before. 
 
 “I realised I’ve been doing music now for 30 years or so, and I just wanted to have a new experience where almost I had to start again. So I’ve made songs that I want to see live. There’s a guitar solo in Magic that I’m dying to perform because I want to hear how that guitar solo sounds on stage!”

Fresh from a storming live set at the Isle Of Wight Festival and Latitude Festival, and his appearance on The Late Late Show with James Cordon, Mark hits the road in October for his UK headline tour, with a string of dates encompassing Bristol, Glasgow, London and a sold out Manchester date. The Land of Dreams tour kicks off in Bristol on 16th October and tickets are on sale now from here. Mark will also perform at Radio 2’s Live In Leeds on 18th September.


Mark's solo return comes almost a decade after the release of his 2013 LP 'The Art of Doing Nothing'.  Meanwhile, Mark, bandmate Howard and former Take That star Robbie Williams will likely bump into each other at Radio 2 Live in Leeds next month


Land Of Dreams, will be released 23rd September.  Listen to Magic here and pre-order Land Of Dreams here.

Matt Goss Beautiful Unknown London Show Fails To Sell Out

   Matt Goss Beautiful Unknown London Show Fails To Sell Out Editor Katie Watkin's 24/4/22 Matt Goss once again failed to generate any interest from fans for his one show London Palladium performance. Matt announced on social media, that he would be performing at the London Palladium on the 23rd of April. Ticket sales have been so low the singer had to reduce ticket prices in the attempt to fill the 2000 space capacity theater, with online giant Ticketmaster emailing fans and providing notifications about new seat allocation nearer to the stage.  This practice is normally done when a venue struggles to sell tickets. With Matt so desperate to try and fill the Palladium, he begged fans to buy up to 6 tickets each and gift them to family members and strangers.  His management team also took to social media begging fans to buy, with one fan Dee Murphy posting buy tickets it's less than a pedicure. Tickets last week continued to struggle with some fans once again purchasi...

Fleetwood Mac: after its 926 weeks on the chart, who’s still buying Rumours?

Fleetwood Mac: after its 926 weeks on the chart, who’s still buying Rumours? Editor Katie Watkins 10-2-2022 Fleetwood Mac released Rumours forty-five years ago this month, an album that combined some what gauzy soft pop, manicured folk and stormy rock with a soap-operatic level of intra-band strife.  Rumours won album of the year at the U.S. Grammys,  achieved 20 times platinum status in the US alone. What’s truly remarkable about this album is the album longevity , and how it continues to sell  thousands of new physical copies each year, despite being available to stream.  According to the UK’s Official Charts Company, Rumours sold over 34,593 vinyl copies in 2021, third only to new albums by Adele and Abba, and beating  new release by such artist as Ed Sheeran and Lana Del Rey.  Rumours also sold over 32,508 copies the previous year and  is currently sitting at No 29 in its 926th week on the UK  Official album chart, which is now up five pl...
