English singer-songwriter Jinder - a.k.a the UK’s biggest star (quite literally!) - has announced that he’ll be releasing debut solo single ‘Keep Me in Your Heart’ on September 24th.
Recently signing a deal as a solo act for the first time, 31 year-old Jinder takes the title as the tallest UK solo act, standing at two inches taller than Marillion frontman Fish and three inches taller than Reverend and the Maker’s Jon McClure at 6ft 7. Long John Baldy, also 6ft 7, originally held the title for over 50 years until his death in 2005.
Jinder’s debut solo single ‘Keep Me in Your Heart’ will be released on September 24th and follows a decade of minor success as a member of various bands: In 2002, he reached the lower reaches of the chart in the UK with cult indie outfit Candlefire. In 2006, Jinder formed The Mercurymen, and signed to Arista - but an album failed to materialise.
Explaining the failure of The Mercurymen: “Our album was never released and we were dropped. It was a really depressing time for me, and I questioned whether it was my fault. On a number of occasions I’d overheard that my height made me look like a freak.”
But, in 2011 his solo journey began, and the result is his debut solo album ‘Crumbs of Comfort’ - ten songs of love and longing, trials and tribulations, rain and shine, finding redemption in daily life, and hopeful jubilation down the back of the sofa.
