"Shake The Disease"

When we last spoke to Owen Vyse we were told that by April 4th the Coronavirus would have all but vanished. Well, it didn't. In fact, it hasn't even flexed its full strength yet. In this engaging chat, the former Echo and the Bunnymen guitarist and Starclub frontman talks to Alex about what life is like amidst a global pandemic from where he lives in Thailand. The conversation veers from breaking curfews to the absence of gyms to life in Thailand vs. life in England, to how people will re-enter society and finally to just what we're doing on this planet in the first place.

Stereo Embers The Podcast 0133: Owen Vyse Is Back! (Echo and the Bunnymen, Starclub)

Chris Simmons is a well-established artist who has toured with major acts such as Sir Tom Jones, Paloma Faith, and Simply Red, and has performed at prestigious festivals like Glastonbury and the Isle of Wight. His emotionally rich songwriting and powerful live performances have earned him a loyal fanbase, with shows selling out around the world and fast growing radio support in the UK.
However, his journey has been marked by a series of devastating personal tragedies.
In 2014, Chris and George Ezra were among the top industry picks for success, and the future looked incredibly promising. Tragically, after the release of his first single, Chris’s brother took his own life. Despite this loss, Chris recalibrated and started releasing again, only to lose his father a few months later. Eighteen months after that, his
mother passed away, and just as he was about to embark on his biggest ever headline tour of the EU, the COVID-19 pandemic derailed those plans.
Amidst these challenges, Chris remained focused on his music. His recent single was a triumphant testament to his resilience.
A Cold December was a surprise top ten Christmas hit, fiercely championed by regional radio, and charting at Number 8 in The Official UK Physical Sales Charts and Number 26 in the Official Sales charts. All this was achieved independently with no PR, team or
huge marketing spend. It was the first time an unsigned act has achieved an Xmas top ten, and this project stands as a powerful reflection of both Chris’s personal journey and his deep commitment to creating meaningful music.

“Majestically dark with the medieval lyrical theme creating an atmosphere that truly draws you in, recalling Neil Finn in his 'Private Universe' pomp. You can't also help but notice a McCartney influence in Simmons' songwriting which is attracting collaborations with Chris Difford (Squeeze) amongst others. Seriously one to watch.”
