Amy Macdonald
Poison Prince

Vertigo

WE SAY

19-years-old Glaswegian Amy Macdonald is a recent signing to Vertigo Records. Poison Prince is the warm up single, which been playlisted on XFM Scotland and around the Scottish region, as well as Virgin Radio. TV reaction has also been good for the video, which you can see here. Her debut single proper Mr Rock and Roll and album The Is The Life showcase her pedigree of songwriting and a brilliant voice, which we can place somewhere between Kirsty MacColl and Dolores O'Riordan. JF London gig: April 25, Eve Club W1
