Bryn Christopher has quickly become one of the most talked about new artists in the UK right now. Following two recent sell-out shows at the Soho Revue Bar as well as support slots for Amy Winehouse, Terry Hall, Adele, Mary J Blige and Chaka Khan, he finally hits the road on his own headline tour across the country in September.
This 22-year-old from Birmingham's talent as a live performer is indisputable; he channels the spirit of original soul over clever 21st century arrangements, through a voice that almost defies reality. Bryn takes soul performance back to its roots, when singers used to give it absolutely everything they had.
Bryn's new single Smilin' will be out on August 25th and his debut album My World will follow a week later on September 1st. His last single, the critically acclaimed The Quest was also an airplay favourite reaching #7 in the radio airplay chart.
Bryn's also been given a boost in his road to break the US with Grey's Anatomy's producers deciding to use his last single during the final episode of the last series. They're also using The Quest to cut with footage from the show to promote Grey's Anatomy when it airs in the US this autumn.
Tickets for Bryn's tour go on sale Wednesday July 30th at 9am for more info visit www.brynchristopher.com or www.myspace.com/brynchristopher.
