Ben Khan has shared the official video for ‘Ruby’, lifted off his long-awaited self-titled debut album released back in the summer.

Set as one of the 14 other tracks included in the project (including the album’s lead single ‘2000 Angels‘), Khan previously described the record saying “I think the point of an artist is to show people a different side of things, to take different perceptions of life and present them back to you. Hopefully, this album will take you out of your reality for a bit and take it to the start of a fantasy place.”

Previously-unseen footage of Amy Winehouse’s ‘Love Is A Losing Game’ has been released to coincide with the DVD release of Back To Black, an upcoming film documenting the creation of her award-winning album of the same name.

Titled ‘An Intimate Evening in London’, the concert coincided with the 2008 ceremony after Winehouse failed to obtain a visa to travel to the event (where she subsequently won five awards). Instead, she threw on a private party for friends, family and label representatives where her shock of winning Record Of The Year went viral.

‘Back to Black’ (the documentary) features additional unseen footage of the artist, alongside brand new interviews with the record’s chief collaborators, Mark Ronson and Salaam Remi.

Set to play dates across the country next June (hint hint, Glastonbury?), the band will mark their shows by playing London’s iconic Wembley after book-ending the venue before and after its 5-year refurbishment.



Elsewhere in the UK, Bon Jovi will also become among the first bands to play Liverpool’s Anfield Stadium (19th June), whilst they will end the tour at Coventry’s Ricoh Arena on 23rd June. Their Wembley fixture will take place on 21st June. Manic Street Preachers will provide support on all UK dates.

“Those huge shows, tens of thousands of people all together as one, that’s what we do” says Jon Bon Jovi, “And we’ve got a few things to put right by playing Wembley Stadium. We were so excited to be the first band to play that new Stadium, I would have helped build it myself to make it happen. So we have a new history to write there. We’ve had some great nights at the Ricoh too. …Throw in Anfield as a new venue – OK that’s just us showing off! We’re honoured to play there and the first thing I’m doing is getting that iconic picture under the ‘This Is Anfield’ sign.”
