Pop and jazz singer-songwriter Jamie Cullum has announced that he’ll be releasing a special one-off 7” single for Record Store Day this year, ahead of the release of his new album ‘Momentum’, out May 20th.
Cullum makes a welcome return with his first solo headline gig in over three years next week, having lined-up an already sold-out show at London’s Heaven. It’s now been revealed that he’ll also release ‘Love For $ale’ as a limited edition 7” to celebrate Record Store Day on April 20th. The track is a cover of Cole Porter’s classic featuring Jamie on piano and vocals and legendary British rapper Roots Manuva on rap vocals, set over the bass line to 'Witness The Fitness'.
“Despite the shrinking interest in physically owning music the survival of independent record stores is crucial if we are to continue to have one of the most exciting and diverse music industries in the world,” Cullum explained. “A great independent record store is an authoritative curator in an endless sea of sounds; it should be like your cool and interesting best friend who is always showing the way to new worlds. Without them we'd all be much more boring.”
Multi-million selling Cullum releases his new album ‘Momentum’ through Island Records on May 20th. Jamie approached this record in a completely different way to his usual process - for the first time, he used DIY home demos as a blueprint for the majority of the tracks and used his iPhone on the move to lay down basic song production; some of which made the final cut!
