Songs They Send Us: Helena Johnson Wants to Go Home

People send us songs. We pass them on to you. Because we love you.

The UK is slowly being taken over by a ravishing, angel voiced new siren. Her name is Helena Johnson and her new single, to be released next week, “Take Me Home Tonight”, is an entrancing, warm ballad that pairs perfectly with a half gone bottle of warm red wine and a rainy night. Traces of Etta James and Amy Winehouse slink through a smokey, jazzy tune that’s hard to resist.

From the press release:

Originally from North Yorkshire and now based in Liverpool, Helena has impressed audiences and critics alike with her stunning live shows backed by a 10-piece band, complete with the comedically-named horn section ‘The Horn Supremacy’. Her ability to captivate her audience from the first note, mesmerizing even the most unruly of crowds, was evident when she recently performed at mammoth events such as Fiesta Bombarda and The Neighbourhood BBQ at Liverpool’s acclaimed venue, Camp and Furnace. 

Here’s the teaser for the single.

And here’s some more from Ms Johnson.
