Rising singer-songwriter Roxanne de Bastion announces the release of her cathartic second album ‘You and Me, We are the Same’. The ten songs were written by Roxanne, then recorded and produced with Bernard Butler, during the two year period Roxanne was losing her father. However, ‘You and Me, We are the Same’ is not a sad album. It has moments of euphoria, of fun, of falling in love, as well as falling apart, because as Roxanne explains “all those things still happen, even in our darkest chapters.”

New single ‘I Remember Everything’ is inspired by Kim Peek (the 'real' Rain Man).  

Roxanne says: "I was so moved after watching a documentary on him that I was compelled to write this song. I was in awe of Kim's ability to be so breathtakingly poetic, despite his apparent lack of 'theory of mind'. Above anything though, it was the special bond to his father, who was his carer, that struck a chord with me (Kim couldn't do basic things such as dress himself, but would come out with beautiful one-liners such as "my dad and I share a shadow")"


Roxanne currently resides in London but was brought up between Berlin and the West Midlands by her musician father. She has previously self-released one album ‘Heirlooms & Hearsay’ (2017) and
played a staggering 600+ gigs to date, including festivals performances at Glastonbury and Cambridge Folk Festival, Lambchop and the Wainwright Sisters support slots, a packed-out album
launch show at Sackler Space, Roundhouse, London supporting the PRSF Women Make Music fund, a sold-out gig at The Lexington, London to launch her tour diary book ‘Tales from the Rails’, plus
several Europe and UK-wide tours, and in 2017-2018 two extensive USA tours. Roxanne’s incredible achievements as a pioneering independent artist have been recognised by FAC(Featured Artists Coalition) who invited her to join the Board Of Directors, advising and representing
artists alongside Imogen Heap, Radiohead’s Ed O’Brien and Blur’s Dave Rowntree. Roxanne also heads FM2U, a music conference specifically from and for musicians, which aims to empower &
educate as well as create a strong community of artist.
More recently, 2020 saw Roxanne play one of the UK’s first virtual tours during the very early stages of lockdown, in support of #saveourvenues campaign, garnering coverage on Metro, Huffington Post and BBC News. This was followed by a special one-off live stream at London’s Moth Club broadcast to fans around the world and recorded for her 10” vinyl ‘Live at Moth Club’ EP. The same year Roxanne released the singles ‘Erase’ and ‘Heavy Lifting’ from the forthcoming ‘You and Me, We are the Same’ album, which collectively received huge radio support including plays on
BBC 6 Music, BBC Introducing, Wales and BBC Radio London and Absolute Radio, with press coverage from the likes of Clash ‘Track of the Day’ and Independent’s Now Hear This playlist.

GRACE GILLESPIE - Hoppers

Once for the waking and twice for the taking
I see we’ve opened up the third bottle now
Four broken tiles on the rooftop overlooked
And by the fifth bend I knew I had been misunderstood
 
So bye bye, baby, bye bye
I am just a fly, I’ll be buzzing ‘til I die
Bye bye, baby, bye bye
You are just a hopper, you are too afraid to fly
 
But I thought you were my angel
I thought you were my angel
In my half-light half-night eyes
We live by the same lies
 
Six times a lady in my seventh day dress
I see eight flames flicker on the cool chimney breast
Nine o’clock sharp I hear the smash of broken glass
And pick the ten shards sticking from my half-warm heart
 
So bye bye, baby, bye bye
I am just a fly, I’ll be buzzing ‘til I die
Bye bye, baby, bye bye
You are just a hopper, you are too afraid to fly

But I thought you were a devil
I thought you were a devil
In my half-light half-night eyes
We live by the same lies
 
So bye bye, baby, bye bye
I am just a fly, I’ll be buzzing ‘til I die
Bye bye, baby, bye bye
You are just a hopper, you are too afraid to fly

But I thought you were my angel
I thought you were my angel
In my half-light half-night eyes
We live by the same lies

LYRICS: 

If I could
Keep a moment
Pass on for eternity
I would keep
Hold on gently
To the time you fell for me
If we could stay
That way forever
So in love
Is it possible to keep forever?
There’s no moment better
Than in love
Is it possible to keep forever?
Fingertips
Sunburnt skin
Days are blurring into one
If we could stay
That way forever
So in love
(Days are blurring into one)
Is it possible to keep forever?
(If I could)
There’s no moment better
Than in love
(To the time you fell for me)
Is it possible to keep forever?
Mmm
Mmm
Mmm
If we could stay
That way forever
So in love
(Days are blurring into one)
Is it possible to keep forever?
(If I could)
There’s no moment better
Than in love
Is it possible to keep forever?
