Critically-acclaimed UK singer-songwriter Katy Hurt is back today with her brand new track – Face to Face – previewed exclusively this week to DC Family subscribers, and now available everywhere here.
Katy Hurt is a singer-songwriter from the UK, whose phenomenal reputation for her fiery and boot-stomping live set precedes her. Now, she is sharing the first taste of what to expect from her highly-anticipated debut album, with new track ‘Face to Face’ available everywhere today.
Face to Face is the product of songwriters stuck at home, listening to old music, watching old movies and dreaming of another time. In her own words, Katy explains ‘Gab and I sat down and wrote what we were feeling, we remembered the warmth that those old Vera Lynn songs brought people during times of hardship and how appropriate and needed it felt today.’ That warmth is realised in ‘Face to Face,’ a charming track, infused with a shimmeringly bright and delicate production that is rife with nostalgia, bringing to life the emotion of Hurt’s vocal. More than anything, it sets aside Hurt’s artistry and showcases an artist in full ownership of her artistry and vision – a triumph of a track.
The track was recorded from Katy Hurt’s home studio and the home studios of her friends across the Atlantic. Face to Face brings together musicians from the UK and Canada and comes in advance of a busy year for Katy, with an upcoming Face to Face tour, which will be shortly followed by the 1st single from her highly anticipated debut album.
