1). The UK songwriter Richard Lewis has a unique and powerful sound. With his outstanding vocals, piano and guitar backed up by double bass and human beatbox, the 26-year old former poet cuts aross genres with his soulful melodies, jazz-fuelled changes, deep beats and lush string sections.
His latest album '12 hours' was recorded in a converted medieval church within the walls of the ancient city of Canterbury.
Finely structured songs such as 'Night Owl' and 'Lamplighter' set the scene for a mesmerising journey through the twelve hours of the night, with songs such as 'Magpie' and 'The Great Unknown' splintering with light the darkness of more mellow, thoughtful tracks such as 'Lake' and 'Weigh My Heart'.
2). Richard Lewis is a British writer and musician living in Paris, France. He works in video, broadcast, print and online media. His articles have appeared in the Times, the Guardian, the Observer, New Statesman and the Author, along with numerous business journals.
His first album, "Postcard", was released in 2007.
