All The Wrong Places

Example

Epic

WE SAY

Example has taken the production reins with hard-hitting new single All The Wrong Places, his first since signing with Epic, newly incarnated at Sony Music. With a release pattern of an album a year the past three years, including 2011's platinum-selling number one Playing In The Shadows, Example has moved on from rapping, and is taking a longer run at album number five, due for release in March 2014. Premiered as a Hottest Record by Zane Lowe, All The Wrong Places has picked up spot plays in all the right places, including 13 at Radio 1, plus Capital, Kiss and 1Xtra. It's had a great start at TV too, most music channels not content to wait for the Emil Nava-directed official clip premiering August 12, instead playing the lyric video. One of only a handful of dance acts that can rock a festival main stage, Example has had quite a run this summer, including Rockness, Parklife and Glastonbury, with Oxegen and SW4 still to come.
