The title of the new single from
Scarlett Whincup - I Am All I Need – makes a clear statement of the theme of
the track. Taken from her new EP, this
is a song about self-empowerment and inner strength
Scarlett explains,
This song is a reminder that no matter what life throws at us, everything we need is already within us. It’s about choosing yourself — not because you have to, but because you’re worth it.
The song starts with a strong,
powerful vocal, backed by subtle guitar which both showcases her voice and sets
the tone for the rest of the track. When
the instrumental drops in, the tempo rises, making this a catchy number. The backing has a traditional country feel
but with a modern sound to it. Having
played the clubs around Yorkshire, this whole EP feels like Scarlett coming out
to the wider UK Country scene. As an
introduction, it’s a great one! Scarlett’s
music perfectly bridges between trad country and modern, and also acknowledges
US Country whilst still being unashamedly UK – and Yorkshire! All that club experience clearly influences
Scarlett’s writing, her songs are not just easy to listen to, but fast enough
to dance to – and her love of Country is obvious!
The new single drops on Friday for you to stream or download, and Scarlett will be launching the full EP live at her Band Launch Party ‘Scarlett & her Rednecks’ on May 2nd at The Hop Monkey Music Bar, Dean Clough — as she puts it
A celebration of resilience, self-belief, and new beginnings.
Scarlett will also be performing
at this year’s Pure Country Music and Dance Festival in July which, in it turn,
also makes the same connections as Scarlett’s music does, with a mix of music
and dancing and this time features a visiting US duo amongst the home-grown
talent
