Roxanne de Bastion Debut single “Buckle Up” released on Nov 27th

| On 15, Nov 2011

Roxanne de Bastion‘s debut single “Buckle Up” is an autobiographical song in which she capturesthe challenges she faces as a young artist, far from home in today’s diminished music industry. Ed Dark,previously in charge of visual effects on Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince and Harry Potter and theDeathly Hallows Part 1 & 2, directed the video … a high-risk extravaganza that required spy cameras,escape plans, bail money and unwittingly involved the BBC!

For Roxanne de Bastion there is no plan B. Performing since she was 10 and composing since she was 15 yearsold, she is a musician, heart and soul. Roxanne moved to the UK in 2007. She had her guitar, a suitcase and a onewayticket. In the 4 years since then, she has gone from playing open mic nights to headlining some of England’smost prestigious venues such as the 100 Club, the Cavern Club and the Barfly.

Roxanne performs regularly in the major music centres, Berlin, London and New York. Berlin’s raw cool, England’smusical legacy and New York’s vibrancy have all coloured her music – it’s honest, quirky and in a genre of its own.Her song writing has been aligned to Dylan, Ray Davies and Regina Spektor; Roxanne’s song “One Morning” wasembraced by the BBC, receiving national and regional airplay (Tom Robinson, Martin Winch and Dave Monks).Together with her songs, it is Roxanne’s remarkable stage presence and spirit that captures ears and hearts – herlive shows are magically dynamic and engaging, invariably concluding with a mass sing-along

Roxanne will launch her new single in London @ 229 on 17th November.
