John Newman Announces New Album 'Revolve' Details
John Newman follows his new single Come And Get It with the eagerly awaited release of his brand new second album Revolve. The follow up to Newman’'s Platinum selling #1 debut Tribute, is set to come out on October 16th and looks set to confirm the Yorkshireman as one of the UK’'s most singular talents and consistently successful artists.
Revolve feels classic, timeless, but never retro. Opening with an intro featuring Idris Elba, the album was produced by John and recorded in Los Angeles, London and Miami, alongside a crack team of musicians and producers including Greg Kurstin, (Sia, Beyoncé, Ellie Goulding, Katy Perry & Lana Del Ray), the legendary Charlie Wilson from The Gap Band on future smash “Tiring Game”, Jack Splash and Jerry Hey’s brass section (Michael Jackson’s‘ Thriller, Quincy Jones). Revolve was also recorded single by single - an approach John learnt from his friend Calvin Harris. “I remember going out for a cigarette, just after we’'d finished recording” remarks Newman, “and I thought to myself, ‘This is very surreal, and I’'m in LA and making my second record. I’'m actually doing it...’”.
Fans can listen to his new song, Lights Down, which is available as an instant grat when pre-ordering the album!
