Jake Quickenden is about to set temperatures soaring with his brand new single ‘Feel My Love’.
The former X Factor and I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here contestant is back with a new upbeat sound, which is guaranteed to be the soundtrack to your summer.
He has teamed up with Knoxa, the electro-pop masters who previously remixed floor-fillers for Flux Pavilion and Omi, for this new track. The infectious record combines Jake’s soulful vocals with tropical house rhythms, giving it that perfect summer vibe.
Of the new single, Jake said: “I think this is probably the best track I have done to date. It’s perfect for the summer! Even though it is completely different to anything I’ve done before, it just feels like a really natural fit. I’m really excited to hear people’s reaction to it!”
‘Feel My Love’ follows on from Jake’s debut EP I Want You, which was released in August 2015, and his New Chapter EP, featuring the single ‘Blindfold‘, which was released in April 2016.
As well as recording new material, Jake has been working with Teenage Cancer Trust. He has been announced as an ambassador for their Shunburn campaign, where he is encouraging people to be sun smart all year round.
