WILL YOUNG Plymouth Pavilions Friday 25 November 2011
Multi-Platinum artist WILL YOUNG released his brand new album ‘Echoes’ on 22 August 2011. The album includes his chart-topping single, ‘Jealousy’. Marking the 10th anniversary of Will’s first audition for Pop Idol in 2001, ‘Echoes’ is the follow up to his Platinum selling ‘Hits’ collection and is his fifth studio album in a career spawning over 8 million sales so far. With ‘Echoes’ Will has side-stepped some of his traditional sounds to move more into the world of electronic music, making an album of sophistry and gentility that pulses with the undercurrents of the dance-floor. The sweeping strings and key changes of his hit ballads have made way for synthesised melody, towards something sparer and more controlled. “I had to learn to undo my musical muscle memory,” he explains. “to allow space into the music.” Will has written all but one song on ‘Echoes’ along with a personally assembled roll call of collaborators including Jim Eliot & Mima Stilwell (Kylie), Andy Cato (Groove Armada) and Pascal Gabriel (Ladyhawke). ‘Jealousy’ is Will’s first single release since the acclaimed ‘History’ collaboration with Groove Armada that became one of the sounds of last summer. Prior to recording his new album Will guest starred in an episode of ‘Skins’ last year as well as starring in the 2011 TV drama ‘Bedlam’. He also ran this year’s London Marathon in aid of the Catch 22 charity having spent the last year fitting in training around the writing of the album in London, LA, the Namibian desert and Sydney. Following his hugely successful 2008 and 2009 sell-out tours and acclaimed summer festival appearances, Will is ready to astound audiences once more with a nationwide tour in October and November. Catch Will performing live versions of his new material along with favourites from his past albums. Tickets cost: £35 and will be subject to a processing fee.

NEWS FROM TAVISTOCK PEACE ACTION GROUP
Our next meeting will be on Tuesday 4th October in the Rundle Room, Tavistock Town Hall, at 7.30pm. Please note this is a change of venue from Friends’ Meeting House.
Writer and activist, Greg Muttitt, will speak on “Oil and War in Iraq and Libya – a Secret History.” Greg’s new book, “Fuel on the Fire: Oil and Politics in Occupied Iraq” (pub. Bodley Head), shows how the occupying powers have sought to return Iraq’s oil industry to multinational companies. Hundreds of unreleased government documents and many interviews with senior officials and oilmen reveal the true situation. See the website
www.fuelonthefire.com. This is a rare opportunity to hear about Greg’s tireless and extremely thorough investiga- tions. He is an excellent speaker and is travelling from London specially to give his talk, which will discuss both Iraq and Libya. There is no admission charge.
