UK country music sensation and BCMA Nominated ‘Best Female Artist 2024’, Harleymoon Kemp, is set to release her new single ‘Back in Tennessee‘ on January 1st 2025. This energetic track marks a significant milestone in the crossover country-pop genre, bringing a bar-stomping, vibrant vibe combined with Harleymoon’s signature storytelling on themes of ‘bad dates and heartbreaks’. She explains, “I wrote this after dating another songwriter and completely fell for their musical talent…This song is about that whirlwind summer romance”.
Harleymoon’s live performances are nothing short of spectacular, as evidenced by her sold-out debut headline show at The Courtyard Theatre in London, which sold out six weeks in advance. Her concerts take the audience on a journey through her experiences of bad dates and heartbreaks, with bold costumes and daring humour that add to the experience.
Her debut single ‘Space‘ shot straight to #1 in the UK country charts, followed by ‘She Looks Like Me‘, earning her recognition as Best New Artist at the BCMA awards and significant national radio and TV coverage. She has also been nominated for the ‘2024 BCMA UK Artist of the Year‘.
Her EP ‘Lone Ranger‘ was a significant success, leading to a high-profile performance at the Mayor of London’s St. George’s Day festival in Trafalgar Square. This EP has been praised by major publications like HELLO Mag, Daily Star, and Daily Express and has received airplay on BBC and Absolute Country, as well as key playlists on Spotify, Apple Music, and Tidal.
Harleymoon’s music reflects her personal experiences, capturing episodic moments that resonate with fans facing similar situations. She adds a British flavour to her music, drawing inspiration from influential artists such as Maren Morris, Kacey Musgraves, and Alanis Morrissette. Her latest track, produced in collaboration with Joe Killington and Producer Matt Wills, continues to showcase her compelling and honest storytelling. Based in London but frequently visiting Nashville, Harleymoon draws on her family’s musical heritage, including her father, Martin Kemp, her mother, Shirlie Kemp, and her brother, Roman Kemp. Her honest and vulnerable approach to songwriting creates a deep connection with her audience, making her a standout artist in the country music scene.
