Kamaliya
Hot on the heels of a top dance hit, Russian pop super star Kamaliya is back in February with an amazing dance-floor filler ‘Rising Up’, a highly anticipated and beautifully-shot pop video and a string of exclusive UK club performances.
Released 26th February, the singer and Hollywood actress’s 2nd single ‘Rising Up’ is an apocalyptic club anthem with mixes from UK dance ensemble Cahill and US production wizards Soulseekerz - two of the hottest circuit club DJs specializing in dance and house.
Anticipating chart success Kamaliya could not be in better hands - Cahill have previously re-worked hits for the likes of Lady Gaga, Cheryl Cole and Mariah Carey and Soulseekerz have worked with Rihanna, Dannii Minogue, Britney Spears and The Noisettes. A follow up to 'Crazy in my Heart’, the track is a high-energy, thumping number that showcases her phenomenal voice and looks set to light up the UK clubs and continue her invasion of British dance floors.
Kamaliya has also been confirmed to support pop sensations Steps on their sell-out UK tour in Spring 2012. UK audiences will have the opportunity to see Kamaliya's incredible live performances as she plays to huge crowds across the entire country.
The stunning video for ‘Rising Up’ was shot on location in Miami and directed by Paul Boyd who has previously directed videos for Shania Twain, Elton John, LeAnn Rimes, Celine Dion and Inna.
Boyd set out to make the hottest video of the year in which Kamaliya gives a high-octane and highly charged performance drawing on her fashion and beauty interests.
The video, which opens with stunning aerial shots of leather clad diamond clawed Kamaliya speeding through Miami streets on the futuristic ‘Transformer’ styled ‘Mental Mantis’ motorcycle, can only be described as a mini-movie.
Intercut with super-hot dance action mixing ‘Krump’ and ‘Breaking’; stunning beach locations; the exclusive villa where CSI Miami and the Jazz Singer were filmed and a love interest from James Mcdonald, one of the world’s top male models.
With her attention focused firmly on the British dance scene, Kamaliya will embark on a UK promo tour with exclusive appearances at some of the UK’s largest clubs.

Chester - RNB Club Tuesday 31st January
Bolton - After Dark Night Club 10th February
Manchester - Cruz 101 10th February
Swansea - Odyssey Night Club 11th February
