Product Description 'A welcome venture into the world of swing. Angel Don't Cry in particular is a charming and moving ballad.' Sir Michael Parkinson Signed to Linn Records via an anonymous demo, the quality of which immediately drew the attention of the A&R team, Mark Moraghan and Nicky Campbell have created a first-class album of original swing. The songs speak for themselves; 'Moonlight's Back in Style (songs by Nicky Campbell)' is an instant modern classic. A modern take on the swing style, the album features original material written by Sony Awardwinning composer Nicky Campbell whose perceptive songwriting with subtle contemporary references complement Mark Moraghan's vocals remarkably. Mark Moraghan, best known for his acting roles on UK television, first showcased his singing talents on the BBC TV series Just the Two of Us, where his rich tone and extraordinary vocal skills did not go unnoticed. Mark is joined by exceptional musicians including the pianist, big band arranger and musical director, Paul Buck. The outstanding band also includes bassist Mark Howell and drummer Sam Brown with guest vocals by Margo Buchanan. The songs on Moonlight's Back in Style are in a classic swing style but with a modern twist. The lyrics are witty, clever and have an ease of rhyme to rival Cole Porter. 'He is relaxed, easy and cool.' Stuart Copeland (The Police) MUSICIANS: Mark Moraghan - vocals Paul Buck - keyboards and piano Mark Howell - bass Sam Brown - drums Kevin Harcourt & Ben Thomas - flugels and trumpets Peter Tantrum - saxophones and clarinet Peter Attwood - trombone and fiddle Maurice Hipkiss - pedal steel Steven Sproat - banjo uke and ukulele Margo Buchanan - guest vocals Review Mark Moraghan sings with the gusto of Sinatra, a Harry Connick Jr swing and a nod to Tony Bennett's heartstring tugs. Moonlight's Back In Style [is] about love and how it makes the world shine. The album is emblematic of many things most adults will have gone through. Of love lost but suddenly remembered, of tiptoeing away from a broken romance, of becoming happy again. --Daily Telegraph
