Katie Melua has debuted a music video in support of her latest offering "The Bit That I Don't Get," from British singer's upcoming fifth studio album "Secret Symphony," will be released in the U.K. on March 5. The Georgian-born singer/songwriter's new album is an exquisite collection of songs that perfectly showcases the unique, instantly recognizable voice. The record allows Melua's distinctive voice and the songs to truly shine.
The "Spider's Web" singer was Britain's best-selling female musician just four years ago. But the public hasn't seen much of sultry singer Melua of late. Husky-voiced Melua, 27, takes fans to enjoy her performance at Ronnie Scott's before giving them a quick look at her when she's not on stage. It's fair to suggest that she's ever-so-slightly moved back into her comfort zone with "The Bit That I Don't Get."
"There is a simplicity to the album that I love," Melua told about "Secret Symphony" in an interview recently. "The last album was quite a challenge and there was a lot of soul-searching. This time, I just wanted to sing. On this record I simply wanted to find beautiful songs and to really sing my heart out. This album was going to be my 'singer's album.' I had always wanted to do this one day; singing other people's songs brings something out of you and your voice that isn't perhaps where you would have gone vocally with your own material."
Prior to the release of "Secret Symphony," Melua has performed two nights at Ronnie Scott's in London on February 6th & 7th. These shows given fans a rare opportunity to see her beautiful songs and unique voice which have touched millions and she is one of Britain's most successful artists of the last decade, in such an intimate setting. The clip combines footage from her performance at Ronnie Scott's with montage which shows a closer look at her from behind the scene.
