SG LEWIS UNVEILS NEW SINGLE “ONE MORE”

With just over 2 weeks until the highly anticipated release of his debut album times, SG Lewis releases a brand new single “One More” featuring the legendary Nile Rodgers, following its debut as Annie Mac’s Hottest Record earlier today on BBC Radio 1. The new single follows the announcement of an exclusive upcoming performance of the record, complete with exclusive VIP content and fan live chat for Friday, February 19th.
 
Speaking about this iconic collaboration,  Nile Rodgers reveals, “SG and I have been working together at my home away from home, Abbey Road, for a couple of years now. I love how effortless and cool this song is. The awesome Julian Bunetta and John Ryan wrote on this with us and killed it!”
 
SG Lewis adds, “One More was the first song I wrote for this record in LA, and one that set me on the path to making this whole album. Working with Nile Rodgers was an experience which will stay with me for the rest of my life. To have someone who has influenced not only this album, but my entire career play on this song is mind blowing.”

To commemorate the release of his highly anticipated debut album times, SG Lewis has announced an exclusive upcoming performance of the record, complete with an after show Q&A with special guests (for VIP ticket holders) on Friday February 19th.

The one-time only online performance will give fans a chance to hear the album live for the very first time and to carry on the party together into the night. The show will take inspiration from 1970s New York City nightlife, with SG Lewis transporting the best of Paradise Garage and The Loft straight to your living room. Special guests for the event will be announced in due time.

Of the event, SG Lewis reveals “When I started to make this album, I envisioned the moments we would create together when playing it live. I hoped that the music would serve as the soundtrack to celebration, and help create memories that would last forever. We find ourselves in a very different situation in 2021, and the perspective of the album has changed greatly in my head. Whilst many of us look forward to the day that everything is back to normal, I saw an opportunity to create memories together regardless of the current circumstance. So I’m hugely excited to share this with you. This experience will deliver a live show to your homes in a way that would not be possible in any real world gig, and will fully immerse you into the times universe. I hope it can provide a little escapism and euphoria in the midst of all this. Let’s have a party.

Stream #1: Australia, New Zealand & Japan (8pm AEST, 10pm NZST & 6pm JST)

“One More” is the latest track to emerge from times, following the releases of the releases of massive singles “Chemicals“, the Robynand Channel Tres collaborative smash “Impact”, “Feed The Fire” featuring Lucky Daye and most recently, “Time” featuring Rhye. The LP, out February 19 via Republic Records in North America, finds one of modern pop’s secret weapons stepping out front and center, as he takes listeners on a voyage through soaring electronic dance and kaleidoscopic future disco, with the help of a few friends along the way.

For his debut album, SG Lewis (real name Sam Lewis) has enlisted a blockbuster collection of guests, as Sam continues a long line of stellar collaborations that have singled him out as one of music’s most sought after producers. times – markedly stylised in lowercase – arrives after a year when ‘times’ have been few and far between, especially in contrast to a huge 2019 which saw him sell out headline shows across the US, Asia, Australia and Europe as well as appearing at prime slots from Coachella to Glastonbury. It was a string of live experiences that cemented his status as not just one of London’s hottest talents but also a formidable artist capable of making a splash on both sides of the Atlantic and beyond.

On the album, Sam says “times is an ode to the present moment. 2020 has shown us that the experiences we took for granted in the past, are never promised tomorrow, and that the opportunity to dance together may not always be there again. After reading about 70’s New York and the birth of Disco, I became infatuated with the euphoria and escapism that the music from that period created, and the safe spaces the clubs at the time provided for people to express themselves. I aimed to create a world musically that captured those same feelings, and to imagine the music that would be playing in those rooms if they were to exist today.”

This is his first collection of songs since the three-chapter concept EP Dusk, Dark, Dawn, which featured Clairo,T.E.E.D., AlunaGeorge and Ruel and served as a tribute to club and youth culture, chronicling the trajectory of a night out through its different moods and genres.

Sam has recently collaborated with Aluna,Victoria Monet, Raye, Ray BLK,The Neptunes/N.E.R.D’s Chad Hugo, Gerd Janson, Conducta and more as well as producing ‘Hallucinate’ on Dua Lipa’s record-smashing album Future Nostalgia and Dave’s ‘100M’s’, proving his worth as one of the most respected and prolific musicians in the world. Sam’s ever-growing catalogue both as a collaborator and solo work showcases his abilities as an artist capable of working beyond the limits of genre and style with times ready to send his star into the stratosphere in 2021.
