Jake Morley to release new single Ghostess in February

Jake Morley’s current single Falter made daytime playlist at BBC Three Counties.

You can hear the single at https://soundcloud.com/jakemorley/falter. 

His 2015 single Ghostess will be released in Feb.

Following the release of his 2012 debut album, London-based artist Jake Morley spent two years gigging relentlessly up, down and across the UK, establishing a strong grass roots following.  Morley's personal songs, captivating live presence and ground-breaking guitar style brought festival slots at The Isle of Wight, Latitude, Secret Garden Party, a sell out headliner at HMV’s Next Big Thing Festival, plus enthusiastic support from key Radio 2 and 6Music shows and glowing press reviews.

This wealth of live experience fed into an intense soul-searching writing period at the start of 2014. He finally returned to the studio this summer, unveiling a startling new weight and depth to his music. Bolder and more mature themes like adulthood and intense self-reflection shine through the new songs.  Helping carve out this detailed new approach on first single Falter is award-winning producer Calum MacColl.

Falter is a track that doesn’t depend on gimmicks, kitsch or any shock factor as it does on its near-perfect construction of a great song. The production is a mixture of Gotye’s creativity and  Ed Sheeran’s mass-appeal. Quirky nods to acoustic pop and an unconventional guitar technique show off his imaginative song-writing and arrangement abilities. 

"It's the sound," Morley says, "of everything crashing to a halt." Falter proves that his career threatens to do the reverse, and is an act worth watching.
