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 ‘Molecules’ is a slice of hypnotic, invigorating and intelligent dark-pop fusing elements of psych, folk, and a love of late 60s production, with Roxanne’s sound taking inspiration from artists like
The Beatles through to Regina Spektor. Roxanne’s pure vocal is both contrasted and complemented by the screaming violins and vigorous guitar riffs, the latter, alongside the video’s stylised black and
red silhouetted imagery, a nod to The White Stripes’ influence. The track’s drum sound is actually clapping and Roxanne hitting things like tambourines and floor toms in Bernard’s living room.

Lyrically, ‘Molecules’ raises some divine questions in its refrain “You can shout at molecules and see them react…that might be God, they might have mislabelled that.” As Roxanne explains “What if we got it wrong? If there is such a thing as divinity, maybe it’s more on a modular level.”

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 &amp; 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 &amp;
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.

Rock n Roll Witch is the latest single from SheBeat working with Scottish Indie producer Ian White (The Wendys/ Sons of the Descent).
Inspired by a jingle SheBeat created for the radio show of the same name hosted by magical music journalist Zöe Howe, Rock n Roll Witch is all about embracing music as magic, dancing around the kitchen while you make your potions. 
SheBeat Jodie, a Liverbird living in Leith says: "This is witch pop at its finest. I am delighted to present a magical summer song, released in the week of the solstice and on my birthday, I hope you enjoy it's celestial vibes."

Lyrics:

Every moment
Filled with spirit
now here
Breathe in the space

Heart open 
equanimity,
we walk 
The narrow way

Clear choices, 
pure actions
Be true
Live by faith

In alignment, 
eyes open
Unafraid
Doubts pass away

Caught by nothing
No distraction
Complete
Do not stray

Calm and focused, 
not dreaming
Awake
Time slips away

In the spirit
Not even death
Can take
life away

In the stillness
Find refuge
At peace
On the narrow way

Rođen Sam Negde Daleko
