Emeli Sande 'Our Version Of Events' Tour

Hi everyone!

I was lucky enough to get two tickets to see Emeli Sande last Monday (April 8th 2013)  at The Hammersmith Apollo; for the UK leg of the 'Our Version Of Events Tour'.

I decided to take my mum, as she is just a big fan of Emeli Sande as I am. All week before the show I made sure to play the album once a day, so I could be singing each and every word in the audience. Yes, when I go to see a concert I'm often the one singing and dancing along. I was happily joined by others on the sidelines. I did spot a few artists too such as Ny Official.

Emeli performed all the songs from her album as well as two new songs from her upcoming project. AMAZING! One for her now husband and the other a great inspired by Emeli's life encounters. My favourite being 'Breaking the Law'- which she mentioned was for her sister, Lucy.

Supporting Emeli Sande on the London leg of the tour were acts Sam Smith and Jacob Banks. Both ones to watch. Jacob Banks performed on the April 8th  (the night I went) and Sam Smith on the April 9th. How epic Jacob Bank's was. He performed tracks from his free EP 'The Monologue'; 'Rainy Day' , 'Dear Simone'- love at first hear!! To open the show we had an artist named Mahalia she was great a refreshing, she performed tracks from her free EP 'Head Space'; 'No Escape', 'Head Space',  & 'Let The World See The Light'.

I Look forward to hearing more music from Emeli Sande, as she is working on her second album. Exciting! 2012 was really Emeli's year winning Brit Awards and being the figure for the 2012 Olympic Ceremonies.

SONG Post: Artist Alert

Hey Guys!

I present to you a beautiful songstress who goes by the name of Lidiaana!

Signed to independent label Segenita Records, Lidiaana is a singer/songwriter/producer, the sounds are awesome influence from R&B, Funk, & Pop.

Three months ago Lidiaana released her E.P 'How Often', and guess what it is a FREE download. Yes, free! The E.P , 'How Often' is made up of 7 tracks:

1)I Heard It Through The Grapevine (Acapella)
2)How Often feat. Idris Jones
3)Miss You
4)Do You feat. Helgi and Herda Vim
5)Moments feat. Timba
6)Hater feat. Definition and Kay Martay
7)Depression

I myself have had a good listen and you can really feel the passion in each and every track. My personal favourite being 'How Often' makes you think of summer, and is a great song for all the independent females out there; I know you can all relate. And of course 'Do You' is a close second !

Make sure you download the E.P, and show Lidiaana some love!

I shall leave the links below to her Facebook and Twitter pages, as well as her video for the track 'How Often'.

Winter Blues

Happy New Year!

Happy belated Love Day AKA Valentines Day.

My presence on this blog has been next to none recently but I'm BACK! I will be back with more posts. The winter blues has definitely caught me, literally. I type from bed armed with Kleenex Balsam Mansize tissues but thought that it's the perfect time to post.

For the second year in a row I shall attempt..attempt to cut out sugar for Lent. Last year me and my friend epically failed. I gave into a KitKat chunky after two/three weeks. But here goes nothing! Starting from Monday of course lol. 

This year is going to be epic. Even if it may not seem like it now, it will be what we make it. Here's to a FANTASTIC year. And remember to "Be Confident, it is part of you're Inheritance!"
