Jamie Button has released the second single, ‘Told You Things’ from his forthcoming EP,. The song follows in from the iTunes no.3 chart hit ‘Flashbang’ released at the tail-end of 2020.Recorded in Paisley at Jamie McGrory’s (Bay City Rollers) studio JJ Recordings, ‘Told You Things’ features recent iTunes No.1 artist Scott Forsyth on drums and guitars whilst Gordon Burn (bass), Gary Hornsby (lead guitar) and Roo Geddes (violin) complete the record. The song was produced by Glasgow-based Ross Hamilton (Texas, Saint PHNX, Seafret).

Cinematic and beautifully arranged ‘Told You Things’ showcases Jamie Button’s wholesome and melodic musicianship. With elegant string swoons and warm acoustic guitar backed by buoyant drums, Button presents his song sweetly and passionately. Button’s poetic lyrics drift easily into ears with subtle guitar embellishing the backdrop in tropical hues as he laments, “ I’ve got a suitcase of stories, but I don’t want to bore you.” 

Button’s knack with irresistible bittersweet melodies has won the hearts of many, and the dreamy, melancholic melody within ‘Told You Things’ is too sweet to resist. With smooth vocals, a time-stopping crescendo, and catchy chorus, ‘Told You Things’ is a fantastic addition to Button’s collection of compelling tunes.
