jon Fratelli - Baby We're Refugees
Former front-man of The Fratellis, Jon looks set to build on his past success with his solo career.
New single 'Baby We're Refugees!' should end any doubts regarding his song-writing talents, a great track building to an infectious chorus.
It won't alienate any fans of The Fratellis, despite it's slower, mid-paced, acoustic guitar-driven sound.
Fratelli's vocals carry this track, as he shows the sort of talent we first heard on Costello Music.
'Baby We're Refugees!' will mark a new phase in Jon's career and establish him as a star in his own right.
It bodes well for the album, and this could be one of this year's big summer hits.
In the same way his former band took over the airwaves with 'Henrietta' and 'Baby Fratelli', this song has all the tools to become a big hit.
Whilst it's quite plodding, it has a classic rock n' roll rhythm and suitably big chorus that should give everyone hope for Psycho Jukebox.
Jon Fratelli has noted that this is his favourite song from his upcoming album.
If the rest of it is even half as good as this, we're in for a real treat this summer.
