110 Ways To Make Things Better proceeds going to Brain Tumour Charity
Jordan Allen release their new single 110 Ways To Make Things Better alongside two brand new tracks on Friday 10 February. Proceeds from the track, which comes from the forthcoming EP Livin’ La Vida Bolton will go to the Brain Tumour Charity.
110 Ways To Make Things Better was written and recorded during the terminal illness of Jordan’s father Kevin in the closing months of 2016 and marks a tribute to a man who was Jordan’s greater supporter in life and music.
The video, which weaves family home video and recent footage of Jordan Allen performing live with his father in attendance, was directed by Kill Farrell and echoes the sentiments of the song.
Speaking about the single, Jordan commented “This one is dedicated to my dad. He came to every show and was really proud of everything that we are doing as a band. This song is really important to us. Despite everything else that’s going on in the world right now, I want this to be a soundtrack to a bright 2017… This one’s for him.”
The original ‘110 Ways…’ demo was played to his father while in hospital during his final days. It was, of course, given a big thumbs up. Eventually completed following his father’s passing, Jordan looked to finesse the track with a hopeful outlook as to how he and his family can overcome such a heartbreaking loss.
The release comes as Jodran Allen embark on their first national tour alongside The Sherlocks. The tour, which opens tomorrow night at Manchester’s Albert Hall sees Jordan Allen performing 11 dates across the UK with The Sherlocks before a festival appearance in April at Live At Leeds.
Jordan Allen are Jordan Allen (Vocals, Guitars), Danny Quin (Guitar), Kieran Loughran (Bass) and Nathan Howard (Drums).
110 Ways To Make Things Better is released on Friday 10 February 2017. All proceeds earned will go to the Brain Tumour Charity.
