Creating a lane of his own where authenticity and ambition collide with an unstoppable sense of community, the observational and aspirational singer-songwriter, Jamie Webster releases his first new music of the year ahead of playing to 26,000 people over just two dates. Voice Of The Voiceless – OUT NOW – emerges from intensely creative and productive recording sessions over the past year, setting the creatively-emboldened artist and his fans on a new path of optimism and possibility as a summer of main stage festival appearances, sunsets and long nights under the stars stretch out before them.
In sharing the first spoils of time spent recording at the iconic Rockfield Studios as well as the artist’s own, new studio in Liverpool, Webster says:
“‘Voice Of The Voiceless’ is a call to action for people who feel like they’ve got no way out of a life where the odds are constantly stacked against us. So many of us feel alone, powerless and with no chance to succeeding in today’s society. This song is a reminder that we’re not alone, that if we rise from the shadows and come together, we might actually have a chance to make a positive change for everyone”
Feeding off the new velocity that his second Top Ten album, 2022’s No.3 success, Moments, afforded him, Webster set off on his biggest ever UK Tour last winter, selling out venues up, down and around the UK and Ireland, including memorable shows at London’s Shepherd’s Bush Empire, Glasgow Barrowland and the grand Albert Hall in Manchester. No sooner had he set down his guitar at a SOLD-OUT M&S Bank Arena back home in Liverpool last November than Webster announced his biggest shows to date – two forthcoming nights shared with a total of 26,000 people at the city’s Pier Head over Thu 29 and Fri 30 June 2023.
Looking ahead to the landmark shows to come, as well as reflecting on his set at Glastonbury Festival, taking to the bigger Avalon Stage last weekend following 2022’s debut on the Leftfield Stage at the invitation of Billy Bragg, Webster’s newest cut makes decisive strides towards further advances in sound. Remaining resolute in using his music to freeze-frame a moment in time, decrying the status quo, Webster also ignites new flames of hope that, one day, change will come.
