Alex Winston
Alex Winston — whose work you may know from this tele­vi­sion advert — has announced she'll release her debut album 'King Con' on 5 March 2012.

The 11-track album features songs about Amish adoles­cence ('Run Rumspringa'), polygamy ('Sister Wife'), healing evan­gel­ists ('Benny') and Elvis imper­son­at­ors ('Velvet Elvis').

Winston has employed the pro­duc­tion talents of Charlie Hugall (of Florence's 'You've Got The Love' fame), Lykke Li producer Bjorn Yttling (of Peter, Bjorn and John) and The Knocks.

The full 'King Con' tracklist is as follows:

1. Fire Ant, 2. Velvet Elvis, 3. Medicine, 4. Locomotive, 5. Host, 6. Sister Wife, 7. Choice Notes, 8. Shock Me, 9. Benny, 10. Run Rumspringa, 11. The Fold

And if want to have a listen to Alex's 'Everlasting Love' cover, then want no more.
