Alfie Templeman collaborates with Nile Rodgers for 'Just A Dance'

With his eagerly-awaited new album set to arrive later this week, Alfie Templeman has now dropped the final cut to be lifted from his forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Just A Dance' sees him team up with Nile Rodgers for the release, and follows on from the previously shared 'Eyes Wide Shut', 'Hello Lonely', 'Beckham' and the record's title-track in previewing his sophomore LP 'Radiosoul', which is out this Friday 7th June via Chess Club Records / AWAL Recordings.

Speaking about the new offering, he said, “Nobody does rhythm guitar like Nile Rodgers; his music has been a massive part of my life. I went to Miami to put this one together with the man himself and learned so much about his process and how he writes hooks that never escape your head. Nile is obviously the king of all things ‘Dance,’ so to do this one with him feels like a badge of honour, a stamp of approval to join the list. The song came about thanks in part to Bowie. We got to talking about him and his album ‘Let’s Dance’ and how the title track on the surface was all about getting people moving for a while, though the song was actually about covering up your feelings. ‘Just A Dance’ became such a nice, short song full of energy with such a simple message. Just enjoy the now for a while, everything will be alright. It’s all just a dance.”

While Nile Rodgers added, “I love this new song ‘Just A Dance’ that I wrote and produced with Alfie Templeman. He’s such a fresh and exciting guitarist and songwriter and I love working with him. He came to see me in Miami and brought the heat!”
