This is a guy called Ed harcourt. He is absolutely amazing, listen to his music - i have both his albums if you want more!

His style is completely unique, its hard to explain, his melodies are very calming - yet the lyrics meaningful.

I went to see him about 6 months ago after being won over by just one track, it was an experience i will never forget - in one of liverpool's smallest venues out stepped this very indie, cute guy with his entourage of Trumpeter, bassist and drumer. I was blown away not only by his voice and music but his persona. He has to be heard to get the full effect, he really is one of our gems and i would recommend seeing him anyday.

Wait........whats that?.....I have just heard from my producer that you will get the amazing chance of hearing this guy.

Drum roll please - on the 19th of JULY!!!!!!!!!!!, performing for the first time in New York at the Irving Plaza, please put your hands together for the one........the only........ ED HARCOURT!!!!!!!!
