‘She’s Got It Down’ is the captivating first single from Manchester’s essential new figurehead Ventrelles – the long expected pet project of songwriting stray Phil Ventrelle. Brimming with sumptuous accoutrements and life-affirming melody, ‘She’s Got It Down’ is a track laced with foot-tapping gusto, ambitious arrangements and a buoyant chorus to boot.

Taking much of his musical influence from the array of subversive pop bands the North West is famous for producing – The Pale Fountains and The LA’s to name but a few – have played a seminal role in crystallising Ventrelles signature sound today.

Having laid the foundations for Ventrelles while living abroad in Chicago, Phil called in some old friends for a mettlesome studio project on his return to the UK. Deaks and Joe Kondras from The Heartbreaks, Jason Goodwin (Delaplains), strings arranger Ben Parsons (Cherry Ghost, Miles Kane Band) and producer George Moran (formally of Mabel Love / Miles Kane Band) captured the mood at Fox Den Studios, Sheffield. In 2017, emerging Manchester imprint Black Bleach Records pick up on the session and sign Ventrelles — with a view to propelling them into the hearts and minds of many beginning with the release of debut single ‘She’s Got It Down’.
