TIGER LILLY ‘Letting Go’ single & launch party

AAA @ Archangel Kensington 30th August

At a time when the UK charts are full of female R&B artists, it seems like a while since we had a proper rock chick there too. Step forward Miss Tiger Lilly. There is certainly a gap in the market for girls with guitars and this lady clearly fits the bill.

Having released her debut independent album ‘Reflections’ in 2010, she’s back with a brand new single ‘Letting Go’ written by Mirella Castellano and produced by Rob Persaud of Roxstone Music LA (who have worked on projects for Lady Gaga, Josh Groban and various film soundtracks).

The track itself could almost be described as a power ballad, a downtempo pop/rock track with a catchy singalong hook and Tiger Lilly’s soaring vocals at the forefront.

'Letting Go' was showcased at an exclusive industry launch party at the trendy AAA  club in Kensington. Support came from a variety of strong support acts including Lewis Clay, Gianluca De Martini, Ross McIver and Midwezt. But it was the star of the show that we had all come to see.

Kicking off her set (appropriately enough) with an acoustic version of ‘Here I Am' from the debut album, Tiger Lilly showed that a song which is a full on rock out track in it’s original form can work just as well with just a guitar and voice. She also showed that not all rockers are always deadly seriously and that she does have a sense of humour.

‘New Life' was next which was followed by previous single ‘Chasing Ghost' and then we got to hear a live rendition of the single 'Letting Go' which sounded just as good live as recorded.

On the evidence of this performance, it’s clear to see why there is a buzz about Tiger Lilly and her music which would certainly would not be out of place on daytime radio and could appeal to a broad age range. Hopefully the world will soon wake up and take notice.
