Former Jungle vocalist Andro has released his new single, A Little Harder. We asked him the BIG questions . . .
The track is from the London-based solo-artist's upcoming EP, Broken Limerence.
Having spent years as a vocalist with Mercury-nominated and Brit Award winning neo-soul band Jungle, Andro's solo material blends together the neo-soul roots of his past, whilst showcasing the 80s infused Pop and R&B influences that define his signature sound.
Speaking about the new track, he says: "A Little Harder is about emotional whiplash - that kind of intense, confusing relationship where love feels weaponised.
"It touches on vulnerability, betrayal, and how giving too much of yourself too soon can backfire. There's anger here, yeah, but also heartbreak and a longing. Someone told me they were in love with me and used it against me when I wasn't ready."
Tell us three things about yourself . . .
I'm a really great cook. I'm a proud Scouser. My gran was half-Irish. So, I guess that makes me kinda Irish?
