A Kirkcaldy singer-songwriter is set to release his latest single ahead of his first headline show at King Tut’s on Friday.

Phil ‘PG’ Ciarletta’s uplifting and energetic new track, Until You Get Home, is out on Wednesday just two days before he plays at the popular Glasgow venue.

A lot has changed for the musician in the last few years. He’s gone from writing songs in his bedroom to playing on stages across the UK including the Isle of Wight music festival and both on the pitch and on the roof of Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium. Now he’s gearing up for a headline slot at the King Tut’s Summer Nights festival on Friday, July 14.

With a growing following across the UK, PG Ciarletta is the latest singer-songwriter in a long line of Scots with Italian blood making a name for himself with his distinctive vocal tone, relatable lyrics, anthemic melodies and cheeky character.

His latest release is a real-life, anthemic, energetic and storytelling song and he can’t wait to perform it live at King Tut’s.

PG Ciarletta said: “I’m buzzing about the release of Until You Get Home, I think as an artist my work is best when it is positive and upbeat, and I love taking any subject/narrative and turning it into a song people can connect with and feel the positivity and energy from my work and feel happy.

"I feel this is what I do best and I am excited for the next phase of my music and the directions my songs are heading. I love full crowd anthemic singalongs, and I think this song is perfect for it whether it is a headline show or a festival, and cannot wait to play it at King Tut’s.”

The new single was produced at the Castle of Doom Studios by Jamie Holmes and was co-written with Johnny Madden, Jamie Holmes and Nick Mercer.

Excited for what’s to come, the musician added: “The reaction to my previous singles and shows have been great, and I feel very grateful my passion has taken me to the pitch and roof of Murrayfield Stadium and iconic festivals like Isle of Wight and Country to Country, and now my first headline at King Tut’s. I cannot wait to see what comes next and I am loving every moment along the way.”
