Imogen Heap – Heap Of Faith
In a article recently published in The Guardian, Chris Salmon points out that despite Replenish New Media client Imogen Heap not having had a top 40 hit yet, she remains one of the most popular musicians on the internet.
Sighting facts and figures from Imogen’s impressive online campaign such as her 40 million MySpace plays, 300,000+ Twitter followers (amassed in less than12 months), and her use of web technology to do things such as video blog her recording process, find album artwork collaborators, and recently, the streaming live piano improvisations, Chris thinks the elusive ‘hit single’ can’t be too far away. (We’re not sure she even needs one!).
Imogen’s online presence will certainly help to her to connect with fans when she releases the follow up to 2005’s ‘Speak For Yourself’, which has now sold over 500,000 copies worldwide. New album ‘Ellipse’ is released on August 4th 2009.
