by | Nov 12, 2024

Five months after releasing The Art of Getting Through to unanimous acclaim around the globe, Nashville-based singer-songwriter Imogen Clark is rewarding fans with an expanded edition of the album on 18th October 2024, featuring three never before heard tracks – a full-throttle reinterpretation of the classic Crowded House frontman Neil Finn’s single She Will Have Her Way, recorded in LA with Griffin Goldsmith of Dawes on drums, a new original song taken from the album sessions, Ruin My Life, co-written with Mike Meadows (Taylor Swift) and featuring Elvis Costello rhythm section Davey Faragher and Pete Thomas, and an acoustic version of album favourite Squinters, featuring the song’s co-writer Steve Poltz.

She Will Have Her Way has been one of my favorite songs for as long as I have loved music,” says Clark. “Neil Finn has a magical ability to make the emotional sound spiritual, with melodies that take your head off and lyrics that leave enough space for you to put your whole heart into them. It was amazing to find my way into this song and try to do it justice”.

The expanded edition also features a new version of Imogen’s heartbreaking song Squinters, reimagined as a duet with the song’s co-writer Steve Poltz, with a new extra verse. This version was recorded around Imogen and Steve’s performance of the song at Byron Bay Blues and Roots Festival this Easter.

It has been nonstop for the Australian-born, Nashville-based singer-songwriter since the album’s initial release in May. Hot off the heels of Nashville and LA headline dates, she headed to the UK, kicking off her tour with a sold-out show at London’s Green Note and performed a sizzling set at The Aussie BBQ in Nashville as part of AmericanaFest. This month, Clark returns to the UK as special guest of Kezia Gill on her The Story So Far tour, then head out across the United States with the legendary Robyn Hitchcock, followed by a visit to her home country of Australia for a full band headline tour. She will complete a headline tour of the UK in June 2025.

Next year is already shaping up a big one for an artist who has never stopped moving forward creatively.

Jeff Lynne Cancels Final ELO Show At BST Hyde Park 2025 Following Illness

In a heartbreaking development for fans, Jeff Lynne’s Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) have cancelled what was set to be their final ever UK performance at BST Hyde Park on Sunday 13 July 2025. The decision follows Lynne’s continued ill health and comes just days after the group’s second show at Manchester’s Co-op Live on 10th July was pulled moments before showtime, after the venue had already filled with fans. Lynne, 77, has been battling a systemic infection and is now under close medical supervision.
