Dani Wilde in Changes video

Dani Wilde has released a video for her track Changes, taken from recent album Songs About You.

Winner of the the Best Female Vocalist award at last year’s British Blues Awards, she says the lyrics explore her experiences as a first-time touring musician in her twenties.

Wilde tells The Blues: “It’s about regrets and mistakes, and the sex drugs and rock’n’roll lifestyle. Back then the band and I were all a bit wild to say the least – nowadays I prefer a cup of tea on the road, a good book to read in the van, early nights and to come home to my boyfriend at the end.”

Songs About You features Madonna and Sting drummer Fergus Gerrand and Kula Shaker cellist Bethany Porter, among others, and the video was shot by Vogue photographer Philip James. Wilde says: “Philip also happens to be a big fan of the blues, so we were a great team. I’m wearing black angel wings in the video – an angel fallen from grace.”

The album is on sale now. Wilde launches a UK tour next month.

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.
