| With his era-defining smash hit ‘The One and Only’, film star good looks and boy next door charm, Chesney Hawkes was one of the UK’s biggest pop stars of the ‘90s. Three decades on, and now certifiably the kind of bloke you’d love to have a pint with, the national treasure Chesney kick-starts a new stage in his career and introduces himself to brand new audiences with the new single ‘Get A Hold Of Yourself’ – his first all-new music in more than a decade which will be taken from his forthcoming album due in 2025. You can listen to the single HERE. Premiered on Radio 2, ‘Get A Hold Of Yourself’ finds Chesney applying that famous voice to a classic, high energy pop-rock sound – but with a bright modernist edge that brings him back up to date without losing the essence of what he’s best known for. Lyrically it’s brave enough to declare this is who I am and I’m not changing for anyone – a message that makes it feel like a grown-up sequel to his biggest hit. It’s a bold reintroduction to his talents, and one that will set him on the path to a long overdue next chapter, with the official video showing Chesney as you’ve never seen him before…baring all…. |
Chesney wrote ‘Get A Hold Of Yourself’ with its producer, the BRIT Award winner and Grammy nominee Jake Gosling (Ed Sheeran, One Direction) and songwriter Adam Coltman.
LIVE IN 25 will be Chesney’s first full UK tour in over a decade. His voice is at the top of it’s game and blends beautifully on new and classic repertoire. His recent Sold Out London show at the Islington Academy was proof positive of just how well drilled the live band are, still featuring his brother Jodie and now son Indiana on guitar.
As Chesney comments, “…I am so proud of these new songs and I cannot wait to share them with you as well as dusting off the old hits too. And of course like any CH shows I will give you my take on some of my favourite artists’ songs as well as lots of other surprises! Get A Hold Of Yourself, it’s going to be a great night!”
