New singles and Spinal Tap with the Bastille touring member
Talented singer & multi-instrumentalist Charlie Barnes released his debut album ‘More Stately Mansions’ earlier this year, and today sees the release of a reworked version of the title track as a brand new single, coupled with an additional reimagined album track titled ‘Easy (Listening) Kid’, both previously unreleased. To celebrate the release of this new single, a video for ‘More Stately Mansions’ has been launched which you can view here:
Charlie had this to say: “The idea for this video came together essentially by accident. I can’t really remember what gave me the original burst of inspiration, so I reckon let’s go with the censored version for the front cover of ‘Smell the Glove’ by Spinal Tap (umlaut omitted by vote of iPhone keypad). Ryan and I story boarded the whole thing via Twitter using mostly emojis, shot it in a couple of hours one afternoon with the help of my girlfriend’s Dad (man knows his fire), and sat down to a lovely Sunday roast. The only real difficulties we had shooting the video were the parts when I continually erupted in giggles. Acting!”
