NEWTON Faulkner has announced a show at Middlesbrough Town Hall on Monday, November 16 as part of a tour in support of his new studio album ‘Human Love’ which is released on November 20 by BMG.
Since his debut number one album Hand Built By Robots in 2007, featuring hit single Dream Catch Me, Faulkner has released three further Top 10 albums, including the number one Write It On Your Skin in 2012.
The first single to be taken from Human Love will be Get Free, released on November 27.
Starting life as a worldwide online hit for Major Lazer in 2012 and amassing more than 50 million views, Get Free showcases an evolution in sound for Newton and continues his affinity with covers, following his critically acclaimed version of Massive Attack’s Teardrop on his debut album.
The official video for Get Free is a powerful opening statement, depicting Newton shedding his trademark dreadlocks, opening up a new chapter and setting the standard for what’s to come on the new album.
