Christmas is always the traditional time for charity singles - there's something about the cold winter chill and being together with family that makes us realise that there's those out there that are in need.
Praise is deserving of Bristol born singer-songwriter Lauren Aquilina who's donating the proceeds of her single Get Here to the Meningitis Trust. The track is a cover of the 1990 Oleta Adams song and Lauren's version affects it with a genuinely moving tenderness by way of some crystalline piano chords and equally clear vocals.
It's an impressively proficient performance for someone only 16 years old and it'd be a good bet that the girl will be going places in the industry in years to come - voices this good don't just disappear. More of Lauren's original material is available on her website, including the songs Robots, Never Change and More Than You.
Get Here is released on the 4th December.
