Gavin James releases "Circles"
Irish singer-songwriter Gavin James, whose song-craft has been the key to unlocking 1.8 billion streams, 6 million monthly listeners at Spotify, 1 Diamond and 45 Platinum & Gold records across the globe, kicked off 2022 by embarking on a UK tour with James Blunt, and announcing his third studio album, with which he releases brand new single ‘Circles’ today.
Gavin comments on his newest single, “I wrote Circles about a desperate one-sided relationship about a person playing games on the other. “If you’re going pull the covers over me” kind of sums up how one person can be fooled into heartbreak by choosing not to believe anything bad is happening.”
Previous singles ‘Greatest Hits’ (Now Top 5 at radio in Ireland & Top 5 in Switzerland) and his single ‘Sober’ became staples at BBC Radio 2 both affixing themselves to the A & B playlists. The latter stuck out a massive stint of 8 weeks on high rotation and the former afforded Gavin an invite to perform a live session at Maida Vale during Will Young’s show, who after exclaimed “you’re an astonishing singer! That was remarkable!” Following his UK tour with James Blunt, which started February 3rd 2022, Gavin James will also embark on his Irish headline tour later this year. He is no stranger to the live circuit, having played shows with Niall Horan, Ed Sheeran and Sam Smith, as well as his own sold-out world tour which started in 2019 and ended with a sold-out 3Arena Dublin show, one of the last shows in Ireland before lockdown. Since then, he’s released his number 1 Irish album and airplay-charting ‘Boxes’ EP.
