Candice Gordon Releases the David Bowie Remake and Music Video ‘John, I'm only Dancing’


Berlin based Singer Songwriter, Candice Gordon best known for her song ‘Smoking Like The Barrel of Gun’ and ‘I See a Demon’ releases the new music video, ‘John, I’m Only Dancing’, a remake of the 1972 David Bowie original song.

Candice Gordon is South African born, Irish songstress residing in Berlin, Germany. Candice’s music can be best described as  seductive 60s vintage throwback, rich with Jazz and Blues undertones.

Directed by Zoya Bassi, Candice Gordon's new video for David Bowie’s song ‘John, I'm Only Dancing’ shows Gordon at her best. Candice gives a compelling performance on both the track and the music video with vocals that both are haunting and dark, giving an ominous allure to the video.  Candice uses symbolism mixed with beautiful vocal tone and Black Keys style production, making it sound less of a cover and sound more of a Candice Gordon original.

Produced by Pogues front man, Shane McGowan ‘Before The Sunset Ends’ was the song that propelled Candice into the music scene and garnered rave reviews for its rich soundscape and lyricism. Candice also received critically acclaimed with her other song ‘Smoking Like The Barrel of Gun’. Candice achieved a loyal international following through touring around the world and received support by the BBC radio.

The remake of ‘John I'm only dancing’ David Bowie original indicates a huge leap for Candice Gordon. She is without a doubt an emerging artist to watch right now.
