- Announcing new signing to the label with this single

Big Crown Records is proud to present their newest signing to the label, Liam Bailey. Born in Nottingham to an English mother and Jamaican father, Bailey grew up listening to his parents' Bob Marley, Stevie Wonder, and Jimi Hendrix records. After moving to London, his emotive and heartfelt brand of acoustic guitar-driven soul soon attracted the attention of Amy Winehouse, who tracked him down after hearing one of his tunes and signed him to her label in 2010. Since then Bailey has put out records with some of the most notable producers in pop music and lent his unmistakeable sound to a few different genres.

Coming full circle now Liam joins Brooklyn’s Big Crown Records and is back in the studio recording his debut for the label with producer Leon Michels. The two met some 12 years ago when Liam was sent over to NY to do some writing sessions with Michels. Those sessions led to the underground classic 'When Will They Learn' which has since become a club favourite at reggae nights around the globe. Finally, the time has come for them to have the opportunity to do a full length record together without the pressures of major label opinions and agendas. Letting the music speak for itself and the title of the first single 'Champion' be the hammer that hits the nail on the head, it looks as though all things have lined up now to let Liamget his music out to the world. His debut album comes out November 2020.

'Champion' is out now on all digital platforms and the 45 is coming soon.
