Well done to Jason from Luton and Karen and Chris from Kent who won the tickets.

Here he is performing the song this year at his 40th birthday celebration gig:

This powerfully emotive and soulful album brilliantly showcases Andrew’s unique song writing style that has been described as his edgiest sound to date.

The past five years have seen Andrew writing and singing on everything from top-five selling international dance tracks to co-writing and touring with Mike and the Mechanics. Andrew explains that “Growing up surrounded with Jazz and Soul, and working in the studio with The Clash as a teenager “gave him an incredible grounding in music. I’ve never categorized music, I listen to music that moves me…. and that’s what inspires my writing”.

The ‘Addictive’ album has a truly powerful stripped back sound that few have the raw ability to pull off with such stunning results. Andrew says, “Simplicity is the key”.

Stand out tracks such as ‘Hello Friend’, with it’s honest production and the uplifting ‘I Get High’ with its heart rending lyrics perfectly showcase the sound of an artist on top of his game.

Relationships are a core theme of the ‘Addictive’ album, “This album explores the things I care about most” Andrew explains “Love and people and all the stuff in-between”.

‘Wishing you knew’ is the lead radio track from ‘Addictive’. The release coincides with a UK and European tour that kicks off in October in the UK and sees Andrew Roachford on the road – a truly unique and electrifying performer and artist.

We’ll be adding clips from the album to the website very soon.

Some people have been in touch who have had difficulty getting tickets for the Liverpool date on the Roachford tour later this year.

We’re looking in to this and will update the site as soon as we have more details.

For now we’ve removed the date from the site.

Der britische Soulsänger, der schon Anfang der 90er mit Cuddly Toy und Only to be with youund später mit Mousse T grosse Charterfolge bei uns feierte, hat sich in seiner Karrierestets als exzellenter Songwriter erwiesen: Popsongs, die ihre Wurzeln tief in den Humus des Soul, des Rhythm’n’Blues und auch der Rockmusik finden und die Ihn einst zum erfolgreichsten heimischen Künstler des Labels Columbia in England machten.

Im November wirder mit seiner eigenen Band unterwegs sein. In elegantem Outfit wird der charismatischeSänger die Menge wie gewohnt zum Grooven und Träumen bringen. Ohne Zweifel gehörtAndrew Roachford zu den ganz grossen R’n B Sängern und Songschreibern unserer Zeit.
