You Left Love Feat. Jeremy Meek, Steve Black, Johnny Tunnard and Tom Bryson
You Left Love Feat. Jeremy Meek, Steve Black, Johnny Tunnard and Tom Bryson The long awaited first original from myself filmed at the most wonderful location ‘Castke Dyke’ September 2019. Tell a lie I created my first original several years ago which can be found on my YouTube channel titled ‘Patience was never a virtue’ written for my father and to reflect that losing everything requires you to defeat all odds and still go out and grab you’re dream.. ‘You left Love’ is my second original I’ve name after losing my father this year! One of the hardest times I will ever relinquish. I wrote this song when my father was very ill and unfortunately he never got to see the finished product! I am truly grateful that some very well known muso friends of mine accepted my invitation to help me produce the track! Jeremy Meek on bass, Johnny Tunnard on keys, Steve Black on guitar and Tom Bryson on drums! I cannot thank you enough for everyone’s support and hard work! Thank you dad for being my guide through life and for making me the person I am! Even though you are not here anymore I can still fill your pushing hands guiding me through life! I love you and always will ❤️

'The Bounce' by Lennox Campbell AKA Biggz Manifest‘The Bounce’ is a lively single providing listeners with a smooth, yet energetic feeling. It urges us to ‘feel the sound’, letting the groove move throughout the body, through our bones and highlights the impact music can have on us physically. This dance track certainly does want to make us get up and move to the rhythm of the beat Lennox Campbell AKA Manifest Productions is a Song Writer, Composer, Engineer and Composer from South East London. For the last 30 years he has been in the music industry, creating all kinds of genres, mainly a mix of Jazz, Soul, Reggae and Pop. His label, 'Ghetto Born But Raised' currently holds 18 tracks, all of which are available on Jeeni.His influences are what he grew up listening to from the 70's to the early 90's, harboring lyrics on topics that bother him and his friend/singer J Wills. This is mainly the voice of struggle, injustice and corruption. Their groove is a true fusion of life growing up in England.
