Hello music lovers and Hello hivers!
Tuesday for me on Hive means three tune tuesday...
It's Tuesday and of course that means it's inspiration time!!
Did you survive Halloween?
Today in the UK of course if the fifth of November and Guy Fawkes night so explect plenty of fireworks!
I was listening to the radio and on came a song which is not in my ttt today however it was from this male artist, who I think just has a fluffing awesome voice.
Today my post is a George Ezra spooktacular
It is Tuesday and that of course means that it's #ttt or #threetunetuesday and so it's time to share some tunes with you!
started #ttt 180 weeks ago! Go check out what it is all about on his last post Kendrick Lamar IV and concept albums for Three Tune Tuesday - Week 178 - win 6 HBI

Long live #ttt ππΌ and #threetunetuesday
Where to start
He has released three albums but I have a sneaky feeling these three tunes will all be from the second album, it depends on my mind as I write this!
So don't blame me if you don't like them, blame my mind haha
George Ezra - Hold My Girl
George Ezra has released three albums
- Wanted on Voyage (2014)
- Staying at Tamara's (2018)
- Gold Rush Kid (2022)
We were living in Spain when he released his first, so it was not until we wer back in the UK in 2018 did I notice him and his tunes!
Hold My Girl was initially released as the second promotional single from Ezra's second studio album Staying at Tamara's on 9 March 2018 but later selected to be the album's fourth single and released to radio on 28 September 2018.

George Ezra - Paradise (Glastonbury 2019)
Yes so I was right this and the other two songs are from his second album which has a wee story to it.
When he finished touring his debut album Wanted on Voyage in December 2016 he realised he needed to write another record.
So he fluffed off to Barcelona for a month, and rather than booking a hotel or guest house he found a stranger on the Internet whose name was Tamara.
She was renting her spare room and he stayed there. It probably helped that all her friends were all musicians and artists
"There was a point about halfway through the trip where I was like, this trip has proved to be really important ... and the album's name (Staying at Tamara's) came to me like that. I love it."

George Ezra - Shotgun
This was the first George Ezra song I heard when he reburst onto the scene six years ago in 2018.
I never put the voice coming out of him!
Him and Ragnbone man seemed to appear on the radio at the same time and were everywhere!
But when I heard Shotgun I was totally hooked to his songs!
It was his third single off his second album and his first UK Number 1...
Which was your favourite George Ezra tune? Or is it not one I played?
Note: The three YouTube videos that I have shared are not owned by me, I am simply spreading great music on Hive.
I wish that you all have a brilliant rest of your week, and until we meet again enjoy your tunes πΆπ΅πΆ
