Charlie Barnes Sings To God

Rising-star prog band Charlie Barnes have released a video for Sing To God, taken from debut album More Stately Mansions.

The title – described as being influenced by Radiohead, Muse and Oceansize – is released on May 11 via Superball Music.

Frontman Barnes says: “Using a church-turned-artspace for a video with God in the title wasn’t intentional – but we’re so pleased with how it’s come out.”

The band have a number of UK shows lined up:

Apr 03: Liverpool Bumper

Apr 08: London Barfly

Apr 11: Leeds Fox & Newt

Apr 13: Leeds Oporto – solo show

Apr 14: Manchester Star & Garter – solo show

May 03: Leicester Handmate Festival

May 12: Leeds Brudenell Games Room

May 13: Manchester Eagle Inn – supporting Vennart

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
