C2C 2024 ARTIST INTERVIEW WITH COLBIE CAILLAT

-
It's that time of year with C2C only a matter of weeks away, I am back with an interview from one of  this year's artists, the incredible Colbie Caillat who I have to say is someone I have wanted to interview in years having been a fan of her growing up.

Hello, Colbie. Thank you so much for finding the time for this interview. I have to start by saying the biggest of congratulations to you on being selected for C2C London 2024! How are you feeling about coming over to London for the C2C festival for the very first time?
Thank you so much! I haven't been over there for so long and I am very excited to go back and to sing for a new audience and hopefully some of my OG fans as well!

What can fans expect from your set?
I'll be playing some old songs, some new songs off my new album Along The Way and maybe a couple of covers. It's a stripped down organic band. It's my favourite way to perform.

What's the one thing you are the most excited about for during C2C?
Meeting fans, listening to other artists and performing!

How are you feeling about seeing your UK fans?
I really can't wait! I am so excited to see everyone and play over there and for them to hear these stripped down version of my songs.

2023 was a busy year for you as you released your latest album, Along The Way can you tell us a little about the songs chosen for this album?
I wrote these songs after a lot of life changes the past few years, a lot of growth, leaving things behind, allowing new in. It's a combination of a break up album in a very hopeful, loving way, as well as being open and excited for what's to come. Every song is written from the experience I had, and what I learned from them.

Can we expect any of those songs to be performed? Which is your favourite to perform?
Yes, I'll be playing some new ones! I love singing Worth It and Wide Open. They are really fun songs to sing!

You worked with Sheryl Crow last year, how was that experience?
Sheryl is incredible, so sweet, so nurturing and wise and talented. I love her so much and I'm so honoured I got to work with her.

Some people may know some of your older music especially bubbly which I have to say was a song for teenage me, do you think you could sneak that one in your set during your performances?
Aw I love that. Bubbly will absolutely be in the set!

Are you excited to meet some of us?
Of course!

C2C is a great place to discover new artists, and I personally hope you have the best time and I can't wait to see you in March.
Thank you so much. Looking forward to meeting you!

SINGLE REVIEW - ELERI - KARAOKE

-
This Friday (11th August)  will see  Swansea based artist singer-songwriter, Eleri  release her latest single, Karaoke. Karaoke was co written with Vanessa Murray and Katie Buckland, and produced by Tim Prottey/Jones of First Time Flyers. Karaoke  has an upbeat instrumental setting the tone beautifully. The first verses sees Eleri's soft vocal at the forefront with lyrics that get you thinking of those moments at a gig that you don't think you'll ever get to see takes me back to experiencing Priscilla Block with Eleri last year, oh the memories. The second verse sees the song take another turn of when you feel like things aren't working out but you are determined to learn from the lesson it's given you. The chorus features many catchy upbeat lyrics that I could myself singing along with despite not knowing the lyrics 100% typical Kellie. There is so much passion within the lyrics and the more you hear the lyrics the more appreciation I gain. Love the summer of '

COMING UP ON EMMERDALE: AMELIA CHRISTENS ESTHER AS CHARITY AND AMY BRING THE DRAMA

-
With Amelia Spencer about to christen her daughter, Esther it wouldn't be a soap without drama during the ceremony would it? It’s the day of Amelia Spencer’s daughter, Esther’s christening who is touched by her boyfriend, Noah Dingle’s support who has been there for her during her pregnancy and now adjusting to her journey into motherhood. It’s lovely to see how much he genuinely cares and wants the best for them both. Following Lydia Dingles help in organising the christening, she is disappointed when Samson Dingle refuses to accompany her to his daughter’s christening. Chloe Harris and Amy Wyatt are confrontational around cousins Chas and Charity. However, when Amy and Chloe arrive at Esther’s christening following Chas’ invite, Charity is less than impressed. Things escalated as Charles Anderson’s begins the christening as Charity’s feud with Amy threatens to put the service in jeopardy - part of me is like yay for the drama, but the other is like why are you doing this ,Charit

EMMERDALE REVIEW - DAN SHOWED HIS VULNERABILITY

-

Over the past few weeks, Emmerdale viewers have seen a different side of Dan Spencer following his daughter, Amelia's social media ordeal which has allowed for a different side of the character's development to be shown. It's obvious to me and many other viewers that all Dan Spencer has ever wanted to do was protect Amelia, but the way he said some harsh things to her in Tuesday's episode (11th July) saw the vulnerability in both characters. It was during Wednesday's episode (12th July) where Dan said "you have every right to be online" was a moment I caught myself a little emotional over as it reminded me of my own experience once again - it's clear how much Dan cares about his daughter and just wants what's best for her like parents do. The way that parents want their children to hear the truth, sometimes isn't the best way to do but on the other side sometimes it just needs to be said. There was many times during this week that I felt for Am
