After a mesmerising opener with ‘Horizons Blue’, Luke Evans today reveals a brilliant duet with Charlotte Church on the Moulin Rouge! epic ‘Come What May’, taken from his stunning new album A Song For You - out November 4th on BMG.
Featuring Prague’s Philharmonic Orchestra at their widescreen best, ‘Come What May’ is a simply stunning rendition and yet another lovely full-circle moment for Luke who has known Charlotte Church since she was 10, and they shared a singing teacher at the beginnings of their respective careers.
The song also comes with a stunning video, shot in black and white, depicting the two in the studio recording the track. Their friendship is laid out for all to see and captures the essence of their infectious connection.
Luke explains; ”We're very close. I'm so proud of her, how she's developed into a level-headed, inspirational woman, mother and performer. I simply asked: ‘What do you think about singing Come What May with me?’ And to my delight she responded she would love to! So that was that and we committed to trying to knock it out of the park! We decided to just build, build, build, and make it as anthem-like as we possibly could – and then put the Treorchy Male Voice Choir in the background.”
A Song For You draws its title from the Donny Hathaway song that’s one of Evans’ lifelong favourites and with which he opens the 14-song selection. They are all delivered in his transcendent tenor, with orchestral backing and additional glorious, full-voiced support on key tracks from the world-famous, 130-year-old Treorchy Male Voice Choir.
