LIVE GEMS: DANIEL MERRIWEATHER- Red

Back in 2010 Daniel Merriweather performed a small set for Billboard.com. He did songs from his critcally acclaimed 2009 debut album Love&War. The tone of Merriweather's voice is just instantly engaging- you want to listen, and once you have, you want to hear more. I love singers who sing with passion to the point where notes aren't always perfect, and voices sometimes crack: passion over polish works, not in every case, but here it works for Daniel Merriweather, Check him out singing "Red".

FLASHBACK: Daniel Merriweather- Love & War

Australian Singer Daniel Merriweather released his impressive debut album Love & War in 2007. Produced by Mark Ronson  the critically acclaimed album peaked at number 2 on the UK albums chart. Merriweather's deep grainy vocals sounded perfect over Ronson,s retro sounding production. The album features the two singles Change and Red and also features a duet with Adele on the song Water and a Flame

Love & War is a quality New Soul album, I remember being really excited about Daniel Merriweather when I heard first Red, It's been six years since Love & War hope he is somewhere working on some new stuff, he's a great talent.
