Having made a name for herself in the British capital as a torch singer and Soho storyteller, Madeleine Rose Witney has recently unveiled her latest EP, ‘From Now On’, a record that’s incredibly elegant and classy, rather nocturnal and sultry. Steeped in gentle, tender and playful soulful goodness, ‘From Now On’ does a good job of showcasing Madeleine’s luscious, hypnotic vocals, once again oscillating between all-out epicness and moments of shared intimacy.
‘Shut Up & Kiss Me’ is the latest single, the last piece of the puzzle that completes the short yet substantial EP. Delving deeper into the release, Witney explains: “‘From Now On’ is a phrase to me that feels heavy with hope, strength, and quiet sadness. It marks an ending of one life and a beginning, with this new release, into the world – a full stop and an open door.”
Reiterating the ethos behind the single, Madeleine adds: “‘Shut Up & Kiss Me’ is a poet set to a grooving beat. A song about tangled love and the moment you pull yourself out of the spiral with a kiss. It’s melancholy, but its rhythm insists you at least tap your foot. I wanted it to feel like a private dance party – the kind that lets you shake off the sadness.”
