Just Hold Me

Maria Mena

Sony International

WE SAY

Just Hold me is the second UK single from Grammy award-winning Norweigian singer Maria Mena. This follows previous single All This Time which was championed by Radio 2 (B-List) and Smooth Radio, who also playlisted it. Her latest album Cause And Effect has gone platinum in Norway and Germany and gold across Europe and it comes out in the UK in late August. This track was a top 20 hit in Germany, Holland, Switzerland and a No.2 hit in her home country. Fresh from her appearance at Hard Rock Calling last weekend, this classy, radio-friendly Ash Howes-mixed track looks set to finally put Maria Mena on the map in the UK. Video.
