Video of the Moment #1223: Fort Hope

Fort Hope was one of my favourite discoveries at this year’s Great Escape. (Read more here in my Day 3 afternoon roundup.) I will always remember hearing this new single live that afternoon. Singer Jon Gaskin got everyone to sing along with the chorus, which sometimes works – and sometimes doesn’t – when you’re surrounded by a group of people hearing you for the first time. That time, it worked splendidly, and I think this a great single with a rock edge but enough pop sensibility to get Radio 1 airplay. Watch the video below; the single will be released on the 24th of June.
