Afterglow
Wilkinson
WE SAY
Winding up for the release of debut album Lazers Not Included on October 28, RAM Records' Wilkinson drops his strongest single to date, Afterglow, on October 13. Premiered as a Zane Lowe Hottest Record in the World, Afterglow has already been added at Kiss, 1Xtra, Choice and Rinse, while an engaging video mapping the track's end-of-the-night lyrics onto the trajectory of a five-year relationship was made video of the week on VEVO and has been watched 675k times in its first week. Getting hammered in the clubs and festivals by the likes of Chase & Status, Sub Focus, Andy C and High Contrast among others, now Afterglow looks set to cross over into the mainstream. Following explosive performances at Exit, Global Gathering, Secret Garden Party and Bestival, Wilkinson's seemingly interminable tour schedule extends through the year, with a headline slot at RAM Records' Brixton Academy gig on November 1 a definite highlight.
London gigs: Brixton O2 Academy, November 1 (RAM Event) / Fabric, December 13
