Alesha Dixon
Fresh from her recent accomplishments on TV’s Strictly Come Dancing, where she was not only victorious but also offered a seat on the judging panel, the infectious Alesha Dixon returns to her first love with the release of her new single Drummer Boy and upcoming second album.
Alesha says of the new track, “This single, for me, is an event. When you hear the drums it makes you want to move. It’s an empowering song where the women are on top! It felt like the perfect song to kick start the album with.”
It is certainly different to anything that you are likely to hear this year featuring drum samples from the Dallas Austin produced soundtrack to 2002’s cult movie ‘Drumline’ – the film which celebrates America’s youth culture phenomenon of the same name has penetrated the hearts of Britain’s beat-obsessed teens.
Drummer Boy is written and produced by Akon’s new protégé Shamrock, and lyricist Nate Walka. Both are young, new talents quickly making names for themselves as international hit-makers. Walka has already bagged a Grammy for penning the US Number 1 ‘Blame It On The Alcohol’ for Jamie Foxx, alongside his work with Chris Brown, Trey Songz and M.I.A.
Alesha – Drummer Boy
Drummer Boy is released on September 5th while the imminent album is said to be bold, rhythmic pop – mirroring the intense, all-round performer that Alesha has proved herself to be.
