Muireann Bradley signs with Decca Records to re-release debut album, I Kept These Old Blues

“Signing with Decca & Verve Forecast is a dream come true for me” says Muireann. “I get such an incredible thrill when I think about my debut album being re-released on such historic and iconic labels which are so synonymous with legends like Billie Holiday, Nina Simone, and Ella Fitzgerald, as well as amazing contemporary artists like Melody Gardot and Jon Batiste.”

Speaking about today’s release of "Candyman", which was the first single she recorded for the album back when she was just 14 years old, Muireann Bradley adds: “’Candyman’ is a song that I have known and loved for as long as I can remember. It is one of the most fun things you can do on a guitar once you’ve mastered it and it’s often the first tune I play when I pick one up. As a small child, I would sit at my father’s feet as he played and sang the song. It was traditionally sung as a call and response between a male and female voice, and I loved to sing the high part.”

The newly remastered album will also feature previously unheard track, "When The Levee Breaks", which Muireann performed on The Late Late Show.
