NEW EP ARTWORK : jessie ware - if you're never gonna move

Another British export to try her luck cracking America is J-j-j-jessie Ware. Just like The Saturdays though, Ms. Ware's artwork feels a little safer then her earlier covers... obviously it's gotta sell - but the '110%' artwork still sits in my mind as so peacefully beautiful. Step it up!

NEW EP ARTWORK : the saturdays - chasing the saturdays

To celebrate the beginning of their US charts assault, The Sats are releasing a 4 track EP to coincide with their new E! show 'Chasing The Saturdays'. The artwork is not as delicious as some of their earlier, block colour pieces - but it's cute (are they going for the "look how British we are - eat us up, America!"?).

NEW ALBUM ARTWORK : olly murs - right place right time

For Olls' US debut he has deicded not to re-release his 'In Case You Didn't Know' album (a la Cher Lloyd), but in fact release a whole new album. The cover is a pretty standard Murs-affair...the title scrawled everywhere, like a chalkboard..yadda yadda... He looks cute though :P

NEW DELUXE EDITION ARTWORK : cher lloyd - sticks & stones (US edition) (deluxe edition)

Cher is poised to release her debut 'Sticks + Stones' stateside (try saying that with a lisp...) and has just announced that it will also be in a deluxe edition as well - including new tracks and all versions of all this era's singles!

NEW SINGLE ARTWORK : cher lloyd - with ur love (US version)

So, Cher's US edition of 'Sticks & Stones' unveiled a welcome new visual direction, seemingly more adult-looking than what was shown in the UK version. This new visual can be seen on the cover of second US single 'With Ur Love' - interestingly, this version doesn't feature Mike Posner, someone who isn't unknown in the States. simonsez likes it, do you?

NEW SINGLE ARTWORK : rebecca ferguson - backtrack

Bex's latest single will be the song added to the US version of 'Heaven', called 'Backtrack'. Check out the artwork below:

p.s. Goodness, that use of Century Gothic type hasn't grown on me...can't wait for her to ditch it for the next album's artwork!

NEW ALBUM ARTWORK : cher lloyd - sticks & stones (US version)

I've found it so interesting to see how they've branded Cher over in the US - it looks like they are toning down the "brattish"/youngness and turning up the hot tamale/young ladyness! (Just compare this US version of the album cover to the UK edition released last year...). Liking the update to her logo too - snaps for Ms. Lloyd.
