Jake Morley
Feet Don't Fail Me Now

unsigned/ Sandwich Emporium

WE SAY

A rousing chorus, a brilliant melodic hook and some fine guitar-playing to boot, the current single from Jake Morley carries off touches of a classic troubadour in the making. He has been pulling big crowds (including a sold-out Bush Hall in London for his album launch) and winning plaudits for his self-released album Many Fish To Fry. Radio support has come from Janice Long, Jo Whiley and Dermot O' Leary at Radio 2 and Chris Hawkins and Tom Robinson at 6Music. This has led to some key festival bookings for the summer including the Isle of Wight and Secret Garden Party. Before those, he is part of the line-up for Music Week/All Night Long's Breakout night at Proud next week. Jake Morley is available for records and publishing. Video.
Tipped by: Phil Taylor
