"Croatian cellists Luka ulić and HAUSER, together known as 2CELLOS, celebrated their 10th anniversary in 2021 with a brand new album, titled Dedicated. The album was led by the first single, a cover of Bon Jovis anthem Livin On a Prayer. Dedicated showcases their unique playing style on ten new arrangements that reinvent both recent hits such as Wherever I Go (One Republic), I Dont Care (Ed Sheeran/Justin Bieber) and bad guy (Billie Eilish), and iconic classics such as Sweet Child O Mine (Guns N Roses) and Cryin (Aerosmith).
Ten years ago, 2CELLOS went viral with their self-uploaded version of Michael Jackons Smooth Criminal. Since then, theyve released five charttopping studio albums, amassed over 2.5 billion streams and surpassed 20 million followers on their socials. They shared the stages with Elton John, Steven Tyler, Andrea Bocelli, George Michael and Queens Of The Stone Age amongst others.
Dedicated is available as a limited edition of 1500 individually numbered copies on crystal clear vinyl and includes an insert.

Tom Kitts spirit courses through film, television, theater, music, and beyond. He garnered the 2010 Pulitzer Prize for Drama along with two Tony Awards for Next To Normal and won a 2021 Grammy Award for his work on the Broadway Cast Recording of Jagged Little Pill. His body of work as a composer spans everything from the upcoming Broadway musical Almost Famous, [written with Cameron Crowe] to his Tony Award nominated work on both If/Then, and SpongeBob SquarePants: The Musical. Tom notably took home an Emmy Award as co-writer (with Lin-Manuel Miranda) for the 2013 Tony Awards opening number, Bigger. Next up for Tom are two new shows debuting in New York City this fall - The Visitor at The Public Theater and Flying Over Sunset at Lincoln Center.
A manifesto for life and a statement for this time when the world around was quiet and silent. The album is a place that is not our everyday life. It's a space to float without boundaries, to freely reflect. The title Underwater is a metaphor - it is an expression of a very fluid dimension, without inference from outside. "The music came naturally, more than ever before. I felt a sense of freedom to abandon myself and to let the music flow in a different way." - Ludovico Einaudi
Rob Grant will release his debut album, Lost At Sea, on June 9, 2023. An accidental recording artist, Grant has never had a lesson on any instrument in his life, but when he sits down at a piano, something magical happens. Father of international icon Lana Del Rey, he enlisted an array of talent to contribute to the making of the album. Features and writing credits include Lana Del Rey, while production credits include Jack Antonoff, Luke Howard, Laura Sisk and Zach Dawes.
Nils Frahms double album 'Old Friends New Friends' gathers together 23 solo piano tracks recorded between 2009 and 2021, almost all hitherto unreleased but omitted from previous albums and projects for one reason or another.
The album was pieced together during the pandemic as Frahm used the time to arrange his archives, conscious of the sheer number of recordings hed accumulated. Having selected his favourites, he realised how, when he listened to them together, they offered a different spectrum of freedom for me. I forgot that some tracks are ten years old, some two, and theyre all played on different pianos. Instead I remembered how, as a fan, I love albums like this. With a lot of my records theres a point where you feel, This is the centrepiece, but here I wasnt really worrying about that. It still feels like my universe, though, and Im proud that all these things which I never found a way to unite before now work together. Its like I tossed flowers indiscriminately into a vase and then realised it looked exactly right.
The 140g vinyl records come housed in a single-pocket cardboard jacket, and protected by premium anti-static inner sleeves.
