Staying At Tamara's

Staying at Tamara's is the second studio album by English singer-songwriter George Ezra, released on 23 March 2018, who describes it as a collection of “songs about escapism, dreaming, anxieties and love”.

Like previous album Wanted On Voyage, Staying At Tamara’s was written, created and inspired by George’s travels, including spells on the Isle of Skye; at a pig farm in Norfolk; in a former cornflour shed in Kent; a converted cow shed in north Wales; and in an Airbnb in Barcelona owned by the Tamara of the album’s title. The result is a finger-snapping, brass-blaring, wind-in-the-hair album that shines with positivity and encouragement, alongside moments of more subdued reflection. George explains that uninhibited, feel-good anthem Paradise started life as "a melody that I couldn’t get out of my head… Months later I set to writing a song highlighting the undeniable feeling of meeting somebody new and falling for them. We often find ourselves second guessing feelings that we have and trying to work out what it is that they might mean. But with love there is no uncertainty, it is what it is and I liken it to paradise.”

Staying at Tamara's was the UK's best-selling artist album of the year in 2018, reaching #1 in the UK as well as the Top 10 in several other countries, including Australia and New Zealand. It was also nominated for British Album of the Year at the 2019 Brit Awards.
