In Aid Of ParalympicsGB: Alexander Joseph urges us to reach for the impossible on ‘Now Or Never’

After travelling the world as a former tennis player on the International circuit and from being a coach at the highest level, Alexander Joseph shows us where the light is on his latest piano-packed track which has been released to assist ParalympicsGB called ‘Now Or Never‘.

Alexander Joseph is a talented UK-based indie pop singer-songwriter. He makes music with a real message that has been created for a true purpose, to bring us all together to hold hands and work as one team.

This uplifting indie pop ‘anthem’ reflects on the challenging circumstances we’ve all been facing through the recent lockdowns, whilst also drawing attention to the amazing achievements of the British para athletes in a bid to lift our spirits and bring us together in the name of sport. Proceeds from streams & downloads will be going to the British Paralympic Association, who are a registered charity & provide essential support to the British athletes and staff in and around the games.” ~ Alexander Joseph

This is a man on a mission to assist a unit he wholeheartedly believes in, and wants to see them do the best that they can. Sung with a real vigor, this is such a quality track which has your whole body shaking in admiration.

Now Or Never‘ from the motivating UK pop singer-songwriter and sports professional Alexander Joseph, is a stunning track that is such a motivating experience. There really is nothing we can’t do if we work together after all.

Sung with such an amazing grace that is wrapped full of belief, this deserves so much love through all the gloom from before. Music and sport really can combine as one to inspire us all.

Has It Fallen Apart: London-based pianist Evelyn Bates is simply superlative on ‘I Used to Have Dreams’

Taken off her upcoming debut EP called ‘I Want You To Know‘, which was first created after taking a brisk walk in Moscow to conquer a moment she needed to deal with from her past, Evelyn Bates is absolutely brilliant on her lead single that will have you lighting the candles on ‘I Used to Have Dreams‘.

Evelyn Bates is a highly professional and award-winning classically trained pianist, composer, actress, piano/vocal coach and indie pop singer. She forms that classy soundtrack that dazzles your mind and takes you to a calming place – to get your thoughts together from this confusing world – that can easily lead you astray.

She was born into a family of musicians and composers. Evelyn started studying piano in the tradition of the Russian piano school and singing at an early age and was accepted at a classical music school at the age of 6. She continued her studies and later started her degree at the renowned Gnesin Academy of Music, Moscow.” – Evelyn Bates

I Used to Have Dreams‘ from the mightily skillful yet elegantly humble London-based, Moscow-born pianist/composer/actress and singer Evelyn Bates, shows us into a mindset that has evolved through time and life experiences. She knows what is is important now and although she feels like she has lost some dreams to the night and has seen them fall apart into pieces, this stunning piece of music art has also helped her to see the bigger picture. That growing self-awareness is what makes her such a superb musician, and this wonderful song is surely the start of something special.

Writing this EP was like therapy, where I needed to simplify things to see them more clearly in order to reflect on that.” – Evelyn Bates
