Good morning Lets go and seize the day Because its one I know we’ve never seen before I know the times where in is feeling more than strange But theres a lot of things to still be grateful for Lets make a good situation From the one we have and bridge the gap thats standing in the way a little more imagination to remove the bad And see the magic shining through the haze Cos we’ve all had our fair share Never did we think that this could be Stuck in the middle like your going no where If you feel that you agree then wont you come with me So lets go and find that place Look for a future filled with brighter days Just give it up now with no delay Its where you need to be Come and go with me La la la la Lets escape La la la la Lets escape I know your patience is wearing thin And defeat is knocking at the door But you just Hold your ground now And don’t you give in Cos the battle there to win is yours Set your mind and spirit free Lay your troubles down and just take five Just pull away its what you need Oh and spend a little time come and go with me So lets go and find that place Look for a future filled with brighter days Just give it up now with no delay Its where you need to be Come and go with me La la la la Lets escape La la la la Lets escape And oh I see it in your eyes Its essential That you get away from all the crowds Oh get rid of the disguise Do it now, do it now Oh get up and get out of your stay of mind Oh get up you gotta do it now Oh get up and get out of your stay of mind Oh get up you gotta do it now So lets go and find that place Look for a future filled with brighter days Just give it up now with no delay Its where you need to be Come and go with me La la la la Lets escape La la la la Lets escape

There’s been so much devastation And broken hearts All the nations are torn apart the Futures grey Can we even face the day Don’t know where the wind is blowing Its hard to see If were coming of going Lost belief, night is long But we’ll keep on holding on Theres not much else that we can do But be strong And pray that faith will see us through Another minute Of Another hour Another day And with time we can lift our heads and say Look at us now Were still standing through the storm Look at us now Were still here holding on And moving forward No Were not over Were not out Look at us now Look at us now A new chapter A new page Another reason to fight again Here we are Yes we’ve come so far A new moment In history The dust has settled and now we see A brand new day But lord we still need your grace Theres so much further yet to go And by faith We will make it this I know Through the battle We will overcome this pain And with time we can lift our heads and say Look at us now Were still standing through the storm Look at us now Were still here holding on And moving forward Were not over Were not out Look at us now Look at us now Time keeps on turning And we keep on learning that Love is the only way Natures revealing the world needs more healing It’s us who must make the change Ohh my brother brother wont you take my hand Ohhh my sister sister come on make a stand Ohh and put aside ideologies Ohh lets recognise more love is what we need Look at us now Yes were standing right through the storm Look at us now Were hanging in there Yes were holding on Look at us now Were overcoming and were living proof Its only love Its only love That will get us through Oh band can play

about

Tony Momrelle’s forthcoming LOCKDOWN ACOUSTIC SESSIONS EP is proof that music can and should be made in every circumstance. Recorded remotely during the pandemic, from locations across Europe, this new EP showcases the raw vocal talent of a man who has been described as ‘The 21st Century Stevie Wonder’ (The Guardian).

Six tracks: three brand new songs, one stunning Donny Hathaway cover, and two acoustic revisits of Momrelle classics make up the new EP.

The feel-good, upbeat ESCAPE released as a single in early 2021, accompanied by a music video that brought together footage of dozens of Momrelle fans across the globe. This was followed by a long- awaited Donny Hathaway cover SOMEDAY WE’LL ALL BE FREE, a soulful remake of the 70s classic originally written by Edward Howard.

A MILLION WAYS and SPOTLIGHT are two firm favourites among fans, and these acoustic revisits offer a wonderful canvas for Momrelle’s vocals to shine afresh.

YOU GOT ALL THE LOVIN’ is a brand new original soul/blues track, written alongside Sade songwriter, BEN TRAVERS.

Momrelle says: ‘This EP is an encouragement to everyone to look forward to brighter times and remember that every dark night comes to an end eventually. The last twelve months have tested us all, but music is something that unites everyone, and I’m glad to be able to give people a reason to smile.’

TONY MOMRELLE is one of the most exciting and significant soul musicians on the modern British stage. In a music career spanning 20+ years, he has performed with some of the greatest artists in the world: Incognito, Gloria Estefan, Céline Dion, Janet Jackson, Whitney Houston, Chaka, Sade, Gary Barlow, Andrea Bocelli, Gwen Stefani, Robert Palmer and many more. In Autumn 2016 he supported the legendary Earth, Wind & Fire on their sold-out UK tour. His acclaimed debut album 'Keep Pushing' was released in 2015 - an infectious mingling of eighties-inspired synths, jazzy keys, classic piano and soaring soul vocals. Strong mainstream and regional radio support for the album culminated in four BBC Radio 2-playlisted singles and ongoing airplay across Europe. Momrelle's 'Keep Pushing Tour' has flown world-wide, playing to sold-out audiences at venues and festivals in the UK, Australia, Italy, Germany, Russia and France. Notable media appearances in 2017/8 included an intimate duet with Jools Holland live on the much-loved BBC One show 'Later with Jools Holland', as well as distinguished collaborations with the Guy Barker Orchestra and Big Band for BBC Radio 2 . His sophomore album 'Best Is Yet To Come' released to critical acclaim in 2019.
