Angel City - Love Me Right

According to an article on Ministry Of Sound's website, Angel City has a full length album.


'Love Me Right’ features 11 tracks of pure golden-nugget pop perfection and radio-friendly club floorfillers, all showcasing the highly seductive vocals of 22 year-old beauty Lara McAllen. As well as containing all three hits to date, highlights include soaring anthem and next single ‘Sunrise’, the balearic beauty of ‘I Won’t Let You Down’, mid-tempo yearning of ‘Stay’ and the disco heaven of ‘Back in Time’. And let’s not forget final track ‘Confession,’ a mature slice of genius for which Kylie would kill.

“It’s a real feel good album – there’s nothing too heavy," says lead singer Lara "but the idea was that the songs are quite empowering as well. It’s all about being in control, being strong, having fun. Having said that, all the emotion on the tracks are feelings that I’ve experienced! My favourites are ‘Stars’, a really uplifting song about two people brought back together, and ‘Confession’, which was written by Rob Davis & Frank Kneble and is a bit different from the other tracks – I had a lot of scope vocally which was pretty challenging. I also co-wrote the lyrics on two of the tracks – ‘Stars’ and ‘Back in Time.’”

Born and brought up in Guildford, Lara overcame disability when she was a child to become a successful dancer. By the age of 18, she was onto even bigger things: “I started doing some sessions, and then got the gig touring with Shakira in the UK as a backing singer/dancer. That was a great experience - performing with her on Top of The Pops and CD:UK – but the highlight was definitely at Party in the Park. It was being on stage in front of thousands of people that made me realize I wanted to do my own thing.” Promptly spotted by Ministry Of Sound, she was soon fronting Angel City. Having already bagged three massive UK hits - and constant national radio play – in the last year, she has emerged as one of the UK’s hottest young female vocalists, garnering a wealth of tabloid attention wherever she goes.
