Kentuckyseven

Liam Bailey is a rising, folksoul star from the UK. He mixes it all with a voice who stands up to legendary artists as Otis Redding, Sam Cooke and Bob Marley. Kentuckyseven got a couple of words with the man.

¤ What are you listening to, right now?

– I´m listening to a lot of talk radio like LBC fm, radio 4 and Various drum and bass tracks from my mates spotify playlist.

¤ Best book read in a while?

– The best book Ive read in a while would be one called ’The Book Of The Law’ by Aleister Crowley.

¤ Your hopes for this year?

– I hope to be happy and at peace. I also hope to go on holiday soon, maybe to Thailand or Sardinia.

¤ Three artists who inspire you?

– Richie Culver, Jean-Michel Basquiat and John Lennon.

¤ Who deserves a breakthru in 2011?

– I’d say me and anyone else who’s doing it for the right reasons.

¤¤¤ As a bonus we got Bailey´s rather fabulous video for the new single ’It’s Not The Same’ which was shot in Cuba.

’It’s Not The Same’ is taken from the EP of the same title out July 3rd on Polydor Records. His next gig is at Glastonbury Festival, June 24.
