MICK Hucknall’s newly announced support act at his sold-out York Barbican date on the Simply Red front-man’s first solo UK tour will be fast-rising singer Moya.

Three days after her York debut, her new single, A Little More Love, will be released on April 15, looking to build on the BBC Radio 2 A-listing of last October’s debut, Making Me Fall, a song given airplay on Chris Evans, Ken Bruce and Fearne Cotton’s radio shows. Already Moya has drawn more than a million views on You Tube – and counting.

Issued through Four To One Records, the electro-tinged A Little More Love is the second to be lifted off her Lost And Found album.

“It’s a bit of a transition for me,” admits the 22-year-old Brighton singer. “With this single I wanted to incorporate the kind of music that I listen to. I think it’s important to keep my sound current.”

The song reflects on the effect of fame on a relationship.

“The main sentiment is money doesn’t make you a better person,” says Moya. “What people need more than anything is love, respect and attention, and all the money in the world can’t replace that.”
