Thanks to BBC6 Music for including You and Only You on its 2016 playlist. In fine company here!
Huge love to Steve Lamacq not only for playing the single on heavy rotation over the past few weeks but also for choosing ‘You and Only You’ as one of his picks on the #6musicrecommends show last night X
In case you missed any of it, here’s a roundup of some of the online coverage so far for my new sngle, which features guest vocals from Paul Draper. The song has also been picking up lots of radio play from 6Music, Radio X and Amazing Radio, with Radio X premiering the Cenzo Townshend alternative string mix as their ‘Shock of the New’ last week, Q magazine premiere and Steve Lamacq bagging the first radio play and then hammering it all week on 6Music!

“A great, dark classic pop song” - STEVE LAMACQ, BBC 6MUSIC
“Imperious vocals… oddball & accessible.” - 20 tracks you have to hear this week, NME
“What happened to Mansun’s Paul Draper? Well, he’s producing The Anchoress and the results are quite something” - CLASH
‘What Goes Around’ is one hell of an introduction, mixing epic Broadway strings with military drums, a sprinkling of Disney pianos, menacing slithers of riffs, and lyrics that make you fear ever messing with womankind.“ - DROWNED IN SOUND

‘What Goes Around’ will be released on May 5th 2014 via TOO PURE
