“’Julianne’” feels like pure pop filtered through 2015’s old-is-new-again lenses” – Pigeons & Planes


LA-based enigmatic singer, producer, and songwriter ROY ENGLISH has released his new single entitled “Julianne” for free download, which Pigeons & Planes calls “pure pop filtered through 2015’s old-is-new-again lenses.” This will be the first track in a series of single releases over the course of spring and summer of 2015. Roy English has collaborated behind the scenes alongside some of the most prolific producers in the music industry such as Jeff Bhasker (Kanye West, Fun.), Teddy Riley (Michael Jackson, Blackstreet), Rick Nowels (Lana Del Rey, Madonna), S1 (Beyonce, Watch the Throne), and several others. His time spent behind the scenes honing his skills as a songwriter and producer aided him in creating a precise vision for his own work.

“I traveled playing in different bands for four years right out of high school,” says English. “Those were pivotal years for me. I learned. I changed. I grew up, all along countless miles of American highway.” The upcoming single series was yielded primarily from a month-long stay in Chicago, starting with the funky and melodic “Julianne.” The collection was produced with the help of Chicago’s own Stefan Ponce (Childish Gambino, Chance the Rapper) and Roc Nation artist/producer Sunni Colon. Roy cites the sounds of Chicago itself as the inspiration for the music, choosing to spend his time there with friends, allowing the music to “write itself.”

The upcoming singles, all to be released in 2015, will elaborate on Roy English’s moody and atmospheric sensibilities, blending the orchestral elements of alt funk, lo-fi, and Chicago-style house. “I recorded a lot of vocals for the songs on my Macbook mic,” English explains. “I wanted to capture the vibe and not necessarily focus on making it sound perfect. It was about a moment and a feeling.”


An immense appreciation for the craft of production and an overwhelming attention to detail is apparent in each song, and English pulls from both his years on the road and his time in the studio to create an engaging and multi-layered musical journey.
