BILLY LOCKETT gets festive with 'Guiding Star'

Northampton-born singer-songwriter Billy Lockett releases his very own Christmas single ‘Guiding Star (Christmas Eve)’. LISTEN HERE.

Released a ripe 2 months before the big day, ‘Guiding Star (Christmas Eve)’ pieces together all the fragments of the festive period, whether wholesome or gruelling to create an authentic image of Christmas. Running wild with tongue in cheek lyricism that holds hands with novelty sleigh bells with underlying infectious rhythm, it’s a warming ode to the most wonderful time of the year.

Talking about his first Christmas track, Billy says: “It’s hard to find the words to describe this Christmas song, as you can see from the music video I took the whole thing very seriously. I wanted to just have fun with this video/song and the green screen it kind of made the possibilities endless! I managed to sneak in a few Christmas movie references, see if you can spot them and my bulldog Trevor who stole the show as always.”

Having supported the likes of Lana Del Ray, Lewis Capaldi, Birdy and KT Tunstall, Billy Lockett has rubbed shoulders with the stars and has amassed over 110 million collective streams and tens of thousands of fans across the globe for his powerful and emotive songwriting spanning a myriad of genres.

Billy, who has been cited as “The English Lewis Capaldi,” takes everything he’s seen, heard, experienced, and felt and renders his life as songs you can sing aloud with friends or find solace in when you’re alone. Coming from a background of struggling with alcohol and drug addiction, Billy’s journey continues in a new direction for the future, embracing sobriety for the first time.
