Spring is in the air and with it comes new music from several Wardlaw artists including Jon Allen, Wizzy Wow, Scope, Pete MacLeod, Paperface, Ginger Wildheart, and Hale O.

Ginger Wildheart releases his new album Ghost In the Tanglewood on 2nd March on the Graphite label. He has released the video for ‘Paying It Forward’, the next single to be taken from it.

Ginger Wildheart has recently launched a pledge campaign for his upcoming album Ghost In The Tanglewood. It will be his first album in the country genre and Ginger will be backed by a new group of musicians. Having been raised on country and northern folk music, the Geordie legend says “this stuff has always been in my blood” and he is excited to share something different with his fans.

The Wildhearts set out on a 5 date UK tour this December including Ginger’s Annual Birthday Bash at the O2 Forum in London on December 17th. The Wildhearts, with the line up of Ginger and CJ on guitars and vocals, bassist Jon Poole and Ritch Battersby on drums, are supported by Danny McCormack’s new band The Main Grains and Dirt Box Disco for the first 3 shows.

The brand new second album from Hey! Hello! is available right now from their Pledge page. Freshly recorded, it features an array of guest vocals including Emily Lee, Givvi Flynn, Cat Southall, Laila K, Eloise Kerry, Vicky Jackson and Christina Maynard, as well as performances from band members Ai, Toshi, The Rev and of course Ginger.

Amongst festival dates and a UK tour which lasted the whole of July, Ginger Wildheart found time to release his new single, ‘If You Find Yourself In London Town’. He has described it as a “cautionary tale” telling stories of his move to London at the beginning of his career. A video was also released – watch it here!
