1st in the chart !!

Yeah as you already knew (probably), Jake Bugg is 1st in the itunes Chart in Great Britain, he deserves it !!

Jake Bugg says (and it makes me laugh a lot) "I guess it proves my point – people still want to hear guitar music. It’s my job to keep that X Factor shit off the top of the charts." (You know better than  me that Leona Lewis, the winner of X Factor UK, is 2nd in the Itunes Chart).

Some sentences said by Jake Bugg (and which are quite funny ^^) :

"I know that she's off X Factor and she probably doesn't write any of her songs." (about Lewis L.)

"It's the only way if you are going on a plane for nine hours to have a few drinks the night before," he laughed, adding: "And maybe a few on the plane as well."

To conclude this post, a touching sentence from his mother Leeysa Kennedy (The real name of Jake is Kennedy),40, who said :
 "I could hardly sleep I was so excited. And I think he has made not just myself and my family proud but the whole of Nottingham."

Impact Magazine

To begin with, Impact Magazine has published an article about Jake Bugg, it depicts him as a great singer (which it's true ^^). Again, the writer compares with other singers, I don't like that as you know, because when you label a singer as the association between Dylan and Bugg, it can be hard to remove it, but it's my opinion.
The writer talks about the fact that Jake Bugg could become 1st in the charts of Nottingham, I think he can too, I don't know if you've seen the way Jake Bugg is raising but it's lightning ! Also, we learn something really interesting, the song "Lightning Bolt" became the theme song of Usain Bolt and was played in the Olympic Stadium this summer !!

Dont' Forget, the debut album will be released the 15th October :)

PS : It seems that the Arthur's Day Festival was a great day for Jake Bugg !!

'Everyone is saying that Nottingham is at the centre of the music universe'

This is the new title of one of the article on thisisnottingham.co.uk, why am I talking about this ? Because Nottingham decided to support the local artists (like Jake Bugg) because it is told that "Nottingham is at the centre of the music universe"
