In the lead up to the release of the soundtrack for the smash musical Everybody’s Talking About Jamie, composed by Dan Gillespie Sells, Ivor Novello award-winning band The Feeling have announced a new chapter in their career with their sixth studio album, Loss. Hope. Love - out May 6th on Island Records - back where it all started in 2006 for their Top 3 debut album Twelve Stops and Home.
To celebrate the release of their new album the million selling band have announced a major UK tour for October 2022. The Feeling will be playing all the hits live including ‘Love It When You Call’, ‘Sewn’ and ‘Fill My Little World’, plus music from the new movie ‘Everybody’s Talking About Jamie’. Tickets go onsale Friday 10th September at 10am.
First taster from the new record is the brilliant ‘This Was Me’. Originally performed by Richard E. Grant and Frankie Goes To Hollywood’s Holly Johnson for the Everybody’s Talking About Jamie soundtrack, The Feeling’s version from Loss. Hope. Love is deeply moving; a personal track for Dan, driven by its socially conscious lyrics that ooze with the hope of a better tomorrow. Watch the video here.
Self-produced, predominantly at their East London studio during lockdown, Loss. Hope. Love is the sound of a band who have reconsidered their identity, taken control of their sound and embraced the Queen-esque theatrical elements of their DNA, recently realised by the success of Everybody’s Talking About Jamie. The Feeling return a whole new perspective. 15 years since their multi-million selling debut record Twelve Stops and Home - the new album is bursting with joy, but with the thread of melancholy that’s always been synonymous with their flawless songwriting.
After years of writing about his own life, Dan was keen to use his foray into musical theatre to tell other people’s stories. It’s also given the band time to work in a different way. Dan says: “It’s been a while but throughout writing the Musical, the West End Soundtrack then the Official Movie Soundtrack I have worked with the band and they have been a great help. It’s been great for all of us. It was The Feeling with a different hat on but we’re delighted to be back.”
Since the last Feeling album 5 years ago, Everybody’s Talking About Jamie has quickly become one the most successful new musicals of the last decade. Premiering at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield, before transferring to London’s Apollo Theatre, the production was an overnight success amongst audiences and critics, receiving rave reviews and garnering five Olivier Award nominations.
The Feeling first burst onto the English rock scene with the release of their UK Top 10 single ‘Fill My Little World’. 3 more hit singles from Twelve Stops and Home and by the end of 2006 The Feeling were the most played act on UK radio.
Five albums later and an award-winning musical to frontman Dan’s name, Loss. Hope. Love is a band reborn, sonically developed, and ready to take 2021 & 2022 by the horns and own who they are. Welcome to a brand new chapter.
The Feeling are Dan Gillespie Sells, Richard Jones, Kevin Jeremiah,
Ciaran Jeremiah and Paul Stewart
