Cameron Bloomfield Unveils New Single ‘Wanted’ and Sophomore EP ‘The Morning After’
London-based singer-songwriter Cameron Bloomfield has unveiled the double release of new single ‘Wanted’ and new EP ‘The Morning After’.
An introspective, soul-searching release, ‘The Morning After’ is underpinned by self-reflection, with Bloomfield reaching deep into his emotions. It is the official follow up to his debut EP ‘The Night Before’ released in 2017 which saw him garner support from notable titles like Clash, Spindle and 1883 Magazine.
A haunting, heartfelt snippet, opener ‘Intro’ sets the tone for the rest of the EP. A downbeat slice of funk/soul follows on lead single ‘Another Man’s Woman’ which received the honour of a world premiere from the legendary Elton John on his ‘Rocket Hour’ radio show. Marking the second time he’s been championed by the industry veteran, following his support of the pre-EP single ‘Lazarus’.
Cameron continues to delve deeper into this terrain with ‘Without You’. ‘So Simple’, combines Bloomfield’s signature velvet vocals with percussive elements and smooth guitar riffs. Closing things out the aptly named ‘Tequila’ is an ode to the devil’s liquor.
“‘The Morning After’ is coming back to consciousness, feeling what’s going on now, and putting together the pieces of what’s left from The Night Before,” Bloomfield explains. “It’s a particularly visual project for me, one that I have put a lot of myself into, and dealt with a lot of demons through the making.”
He continues: “It’s almost a case study of my relationship with relationships up to this point. Whether they’re my relationships with women, with music, with partying, with life in general my default position has been to dive in head first and see what happens. I still don’t disagree with this as a mentality but ‘The Morning After’ is checking myself for a second, realising the road and working out how to go on.”
