Marley Blandford's latest single 'Feel the Rain' stirs in a little ‘white reggae’ for maximum effect. Eighteen year old Blandford infuses the old school vibe of Sting & The Police, with the pop hooks of Passenger and The Lumineers, whilst his vocal delivery echoes the likes of Olly Murs, Ed Sheeran and Bruno Mars.

There's no escaping the fact that 'Feel the Rain' is a catchy, memorable little track. The end result mixes reggae, folk and presents it to a more pop-focused market.

This is a single that is well worth seeking out and I'm really looking forward to the release of an album.
