ADELE

January 21st sees the physical release of "Chasing Pavements", the first full release single from ADELE. Born in Tottenham and raised in Brixton, 19 year old Londoner ADELE has been songwriting and playing guitar since she was 14. Blues tinged and melancholic, ADELE describes "Chasing Pavements" as "It’s me being hopeful for a relationship that’s very much over. The sort of relationship you hate when you’re in it, but miss when you’re not." A hymn to lost love and regret, "Chasing Pavements" follows ADELE’s first limited edition single "Hometown Glory" which introduced her to the world to much critical acclaim, with NME calling it "Totally, absolutely beautiful", Q Magazine calling her "The voice of next year", and the Sunday Times saying "A star is born". "Chasing Pavements" will be available on CD, 7" vinyl and download and will be released on XL Recordings. Both "Chasing Pavements" and "Hometown Glory" are featured on her debut album "19" which is released on CD and download on Monday, January 28th.
