With his stunning new album CHANGE THE SHOW out now, MILES KANE has revealed the video for the album’s anthemic, horn driven title track. The Diamond Dogs era Bowie-influenced song was written by Miles while watching the news one morning, on the sofa, in his underpants. “I’m not a political person but there is so much injustice around right now,” he says, “so much bad news and negativity. I was angry; I captured that moment.” You can read our review here.

Opening with the honest soft croon of Tears Are Falling, CHANGE THE SHOW is a joyous ride from start to finish and features a surprising but spectacular appearance from Grammy-nominated singer Corinne Bailey-Rae on the duet Nothing’s Ever Gonna Be Good Enough. It’s an album that best represents Miles himself – charmingly authentic, and like little else you’ll hear in pop music today.

The album was born out of an intense period of self-reflection, and having all this unexpected time on my hands,” says Miles of the last 18 months. “I wrote songs about big highs, big lows, daydreams, true friends and deep feelings. I learned to let the future unfold of its own accord, while staying true to myself and that has led to what feels to me like a really uplifting album.”

A record for fans both new and old, CHANGE THE SHOW is the Miles Kane album we’ve been waiting for; the apotheosis of his previous works, incorporating those classic rock and glam influences, but focusing more closely this time on Motown, soul, and Fifties Rock n Roll.
