Fresh off a 1Xtra premiere, with the new king of the live lounge DJ Ace, London R&B singer Allana Verde today releases her stunning new 4-track EP ‘Broken Record.’ The unique and talented artist will instantly draw you to her records which will take you on a journey, documenting everything from heartbreak through to regaining personal confidence and empowerment.
‘Broken Record’ encompasses all the classic elements of an R&B record, while possessing Allana’s unique flavour and ability to captivate her audience. Previous single ‘Bad Side’ was a complex and emotive piece, which featured the ethereal additions of the harp and an unwavering range of vocals. Flashes of 80’s pop merge with R&B classics as they sit on an undercurrent of fresh synths and current styles to draw your ear straight in to the record.
Overall, Verde is a stunning talent and has what it takes to make inroads with real music lovers across the globe 4/5 for me ~ JD
Allana’s ‘Neo Nostalgia E.P, released in 2016 gained her notable attention last year from the likes of Trevor Nelson and DJ Target as well as platforms and tastemaker sites Complex, The Fader & i-D.
