20-year-old singer-songwriter Harvey Jay Dodgson unveils his lively new single 'Tell Me,' releasing this October 14th
Driven by a punchy drum groove, a looping bassline and later met by a hypnotic guitar melody, 'Tell Me' is truly infectious. Dodgson brings an effortlessly smooth vocal performance with his signature rasp adding heaps of attitude and character to this fiery release and builds from his debut EP 'Oxygen' and a string of highly successful singles supported by industry tastemakers, as he again cements himself as an incredibly exciting young talent.
Working on his previous EP 'Oxygen' with Michael Smith (Wolf Alice, Anteros) at RYP Studios, 2022 has seen Harvey play The Great Escape Festival, Isle of Wight Festival, 110 Above Festival, Victorious Festival & Live at Leeds.
More recently, Harvey's single 'Caroline' was sync'ed to the 7th most watched Netflix film 'Purple Hearts,' as well as sync placement to the UK's favourite dating show Love Island.
Hailing from Portsmouth, Harvey Jay Dodgson started playing the guitar at the age of 7 and by 9 years of age had written his first piece of music. His early inspiration came after being introduced by older brother Neil to the music of Peggy Lee, Billie Holiday and the free- flowing vocal melodies of Ella Fitzgerald and Ray Charles.
He says, "It instantly opened my eyes (or should I say 'ears') to a completely different sound of music." It was discovering the jazz-influenced artists, King Krule and Cosmo Pyke who inspired him to experiment further and he was soon ready to create his own music.
