‘Flatline‘ opens with delicate acoustic guitar melodies that swirl and meld into warm electric guitar chords drenched in colour. A deep bassline and subtle percussive textures underpin this heart-felt mellow Jam, as FERGUS’ soothing vocal unveils his bittersweet emotional tale. 

FERGUS said about the track:

“‘Flatline’ is a reassuring hug when you’ve fallen down, and a gentle pep talk. It’s about acknowledging and accepting your situation for what it is, and not pretending anymore that everything is fine. Instead of thinking about rock bottom, imagine all that is now possible and celebrate all these feelings as a rite of passage.”

FERGUS’ releases to date have received critical acclaim from the likes of BBC Radio 1, 6 Music, Radio X, Clash, HUNGER, Wonderland, Songwriting Magazine, Atwood, WTHB, TMR and Hidden Herd. Collectively his songs have amassed over one million streams on Spotify alone. FERGUS has released three EP’s to date. Debut: ‘Purple Road’ ‘18, ‘Three of Swords’ summer of ‘19 and ‘Close Quarters’ Dec ‘19. 2020 saw the release of 4 singles followed in early ’21 by Live EP ‘Live from Rivoli Ballroom’.

The talented songwriter and performer completed a series of live shows across London at the start of 2020 and has been keeping fans entertained through live streaming shows for the likes of When The Horn Blows, The Sunflower Lounge and Instagram live. In September 2021 FERGUS headlined a packed-out show at The Troubadour, London.

Praise For FERGUS:-

The first thing you notice about FERGUS is the voice. High, keening, mellifluous, his virtuoso performances can distract from the depths of his songwriting, until you begin to tune in to the finer details. New single ‘All I Dream’ is out tomorrow – CLASH

Providing us with the perfect new tune to soundtrack our entrance into autumn, is London-hailed singer-songwriter FERGUS with “Enough for You” – Wonderland

 “A mesmerising look at a rising star” – HUNGER Magazine

“Fergus is an artist who is able to drive home rolling percussions with thumping beats” – Songwriting Magazine

“An orchestral-tinged AM ballad that leaves a lasting lump in the throat in the vein of Night Beds’ exquisite debut LP ‘Country Sleep”– Hidden Herd

“Young Tonight” is a near perfect nostalgic track. The sway and vocals soothe us more than we can articulate.” –Ear to the Ground

Fergus’ delivery here is reminiscent of classic Crowded House, with a touch of Jose Gonzalez. While the warmth of the instrumentals succeeds in conjuring the sense of euphoria and positivity that Fergus is seeking to harness.” Indie London

“finely crafted with effortless sweeping vocals and delicately plucked guitars. FERGUS is known for his honest delivery, chiming harmonies, and textured layers and these acoustic versions bring out of all those elements”. Neon Music

“London-based singer-songwriter FERGUS shapes a rather beautifully evocative and melodramatic listen in his second EP, Three Of Swords” – Record of the day

“An immersive, expansive, and expressive musical adventure, “All You’re Not” is all the proof we need to know that FERGUS is growing and evolving his artistry in real-time” – ATWOOD

 “Three Of Swords’ is comprised of six elegant tracks juxtaposing reverie and restlessness” – When The Horn Blows 

“With his Three Of Swords EP having dropped recently, the unique indie pop Fergus produces is finally getting the attention it has deserved for a long time” – The Most Radicalist

Zelda Mae begins like a folk track, strummed guitar accompanying Fergus’s high register unusual and appealing voice but, as the arrangement fills out, it takes on a much more epic feel and the harmonies are powerful and affecting – Fresh On The Net
