T01472321688Three years is a long time at a point when overnight success is taken to be the norm, but at the age of just twenty singer, songwriter and idiosyncratic soul pop talent Erik Hassle already believes in taking things slowly. It is just as well: his signature tune 'Hurtful' took a year to start climbing the charts in Sweden, but that first trickle of success quickly became a tidal wave. Now the cycle begins again in the UK, not with ‘Hurtful’ (yet) but, to kick things off, with the synthy acoustic number 'Don't Bring Flowers'. There is also an album titled 'Hassle' which will be release via Island record on November 9th. Erik's soulful tones immediately recall those endless childhood days he spent listening to soul albums in that mate's garage - it's a vocal style that's both incredibly studied and effortlessly natural. It's a great pop voice from a massive soul music fan.Performer Erik Hassle. Performer Jonathan Jeramiah. Performer Jose Vanders. | |
