Unashamed plugging here everyone, but my new single 'Memories of Drumadoon' is out today. To say I am chuffed is a bit of an understatement! I don't know how many of you know the Isle of Arran on Scotland's west coast but just at the far point of Shiskine golf course on the west coast of Arran is one of the most beautiful places on Earth. Drumadoon Point. The intent was to evoke memories of stunning views, extreme weather, atmospheric landscapes, wildlife and melodies.
With all the doom and gloom around the world right now, I've found Ollie Wride to be the perfect tonic to all the stresses of daily life. Magical 80's vibes, uplifting pop tunes that are great to listen to in the car on a sunny day, it always picks me up from any "down" moments Im having. His new album, the Pressure Point, is a really good listen
Ollie used to live in Brighton too, when he moved from his native Yorkshire in the mid '90s.
