Blake (band)

= Biography =

Blake are Stephen Bowman, Jules Knight, Dominic Tighe and Ollie Baines. They formed on Facebook in 2007, released their self titled debut in November of that year and went on to win the Album of the Year Award at the Classical BRIT Awards in 2008.

They have sung for Shirley Bassey at her 70th birthday party, performed in front of 80,000 football fans at Wembley Stadium, and are managed by the same company as international icons Bryan Ferry and Darcey Bussell (The TCB Group). In the summer of 2007 their version of the ‘Swing Low’ was chosen as the Official Anthem of England Rugby for the English team’s Rugby World Cup campaign.

September 2008 sees the release of their second album, And So It Goes, which features a range of songs including: Chasing Cars, Time To Say Goodbye, The Closest Thing To Crazy, Up Where We Belong, Nella Fantasia and Wild Mountain Thyme.

In October they will be singing at the opening of the Melbourne Cup in Australia and in December they will support Katherine Jenkins on her UK tour.
