Velvet debut EP Fire release Today, 24.11.17
Friday the 24th of November will be the release of the debut EP Fire from Welsh indie band Velvet, on CEG Records.
Having previously released the title track Fire as a single, they have already hit the airwaves on BBC Radio Wales, Mon Fm, Tudno Fm, amongst others as well as earning support slots with BBC Radio Wales and BBC Introducing DJ Mr Adam Walton and his band The Immediate.
Formed in 2014, built around Aimee’s haunting vocals and unique songwriting, they draw their influences from the likes of David Bowie, Catatonia, Supertramp and Radiohead with a pinch of the Cranberries.
2016/17 also saw them hitting the stages as some of the best North Wales festivals such as Festival No6, Gorjys Secrets Festival, as well as Oxjam and Curiad Bangor Pulse Festival.
Velvet will be performing at The Skerries in Bangor, North Wales as part of their EP Launch on Friday the 24th of November with support from Xtacsi and The Darvells.
The EP was recorded by Welsh singer/songwriter John Lawrence at his studio in the beautiful Ogwen Valley, produced by Velvet themselves, and will be available via CEG Records online as well as for digital download and online streaming.
