Templeman,Alfie - Forever Isn't Long Enough (CD EP) (Sealed) (CDS)

18 year old rising star Alfie Templeman is releasing his new mini-album Forever Isn’t Long Enough - out on 7 May via Chess Club Records. 2021 is shaping up to be a successful year for Alfie - he has been included in an amazing run of tips lists, including the BBC Sound Of 2021, Radio X Great X-Pectations, MTV, Amazon Music, Vevo, The Sun, Sunday Mirror, The Independent, The Telegraph, The Official Charts UK, Wonderland Magazine, Huffington Post, and more. Adding about the mini-album: “I wanted to make a refined and focused pop record – something more widescreen than an EP but more concise than a full-length album -with a feel somewhere between Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours and Tame Impala’s Currents. In making Forever Isn’t Long Enough I realised that I needed to slow down a little and work on things carefully. The songs took anywhere from one day to 4 months to 2 years to finish for this record, but I made sure each one was perfect and I’ve never been more proud of how they all came out.” Previous EP Happiness In Liquid Form followed Templeman’s trio of rapturously received EP’s - 2018’s Like An Animal, and 2019’s Sunday Morning Cereal and Don’t Go Wasting Time - in introducing the world to a prodigiously talented young musician, songwriter, producer and performer. The Bedfordshire-born teen, self-taught on 10 different instruments, has enjoyed a meteoric rise and cemented his place as one of UK indie’s brightest lights with swathes of support from Absolute ‘20s, BBC Radio 1 (amassing over 200 plays at the station), BBC Radio 2, BBC Radio 6 Music, Apple Music 1, Radio X, Virgin, and more. The title track from the acclaimed Happiness In Liquid Form EP and subsequent single ‘Obvious Guy’ received strong support from BBC Radio 1 DJs such as Annie Mac and Jack Saunders, culminating in two consecutive C-List playlistings at the station, closely followed by a B-List addition for ‘Forever Isn’t Long Enough’, which was also Greg James’ Tune Of The Week. ‘Forever Isn’t Long Enough’ was also daytime playlisted by Radio X (after being made Record Of The Week), Virgin and Absolute ‘20s. 1 Shady 2 Forever Isn't Long enough 3 Hideaway 4 Wait, I Lied 5 Everybody's Gonna Love Somebody 6 Film Scene Daydream 7 To You 8 (feat.
