Alfie Templeman

Alfie Templeman, the 18-year-old prodigal British musician, has released his first mini-album Forever Isn’t Long Enough, following the success of previous collections including Happiness in Liquid Form, Don’t Go Wasting Time and Sunday Morning Cereal.

Featuring producer collaborations with UK electronic duo Jungle and music mastermind Kid Harpoon (Harry Styles, Shawn Mendes, Maggie Rogers), Forever Isn’t Long Enough draws inspiration from the 60s to 80s with influences of current music such as Tame Impala. Listening along, you’ll hear tracks that could come straight from Billie Eilish to The Jungle Giants, making Alfie one of the most impressive genre-traversing artists to be breaking at the moment.

We caught up right before its release to discuss how his life has changed in the past few years, how he stays motivated to create his astounding amount of music and teases what’s to come on his debut album.

Forever Isn’t Long Enough is OUT NOW.

Stay up to date with Alfie Templeman on his website, Instagram, YouTube and Spotify.
