2008 continued where the previous year had ended, with the girls continuing to perform across the UK. 2007 turned out to be a fantastic year for the girls that also saw them perform for the Queen at the Festival of Remembrance at The Royal Albert Hall, and make a cameo appearance in popular British soap 'Emmerdale', performing 'Songbird'.Īt the end of 2007, they released their follow-up album 'Into Paradise' to much critical acclaim. It was the UK's fastest selling debut for a classical act, achieved Platinum sales figures, and earned them a Classical Brit Award nomination for album of the year at the 2007 awards ceremony, in which they also performed. Their first album, the self-titled 'All Angels' was released in 2006, entering the UK charts at number nine. Their success earned the Angels platinum discs, appearances at the Classical Brits and accolades from Sir Paul McCartney, and all this while they were still studying for their A-levels. After they signed a five-album deal with Decca in 2006, their first two discs built them an awesome reputation in the Classical Crossover market and sold half a million copies. Working beautiful four part harmonies around classical, opera and pop tunes, the girls have crafted a unique and entrancing sound. Maybe the original song is wonderful, but I think that it is a very very good version.Īll Angels have become a force to be reckoned with This song is a Coldplay's cover and it's in her second album "Into Paradise" released on November 2007. Their closest relations are probably Angelis or Libera.Īll Angels is a British group integred by Charlotte Ritchie, Melanie Nakhla, Laura Wright, and Daisy Chute. Although there are other classical groups such as Il Divo, Blake and Amici Forever, All Angels sound like none of them although there are only four members, they are more choral orientated than opera. Their albums are home to very fine arrangements, and their voices blend together to make an elegant sweet sound. Their fourth release, Starlight, was their first as independent artists and is only available via iTunes. Their material includes choral pieces, pop covers, light arias and traditional classics, but their third album, Fly Away, leans towards American easy listening. During their Universal years they were targeted at the Christmas and Mother’s Day market, as they did not often differ away from the safe light classical sound though the release of their third disc broke the pattern.
None of the girls are operatic and mostly come from a choral background.
