TEM-PLE's Christmas record release sets out to make a difference, to focus attention and bring about a change in perception around EDS (Ehlers-Danlos syndromes - a group of 13 heritable connective tissue disorders, conditions are caused by genetic changes that affect connective tissue. Each type of EDS has its own set of features with distinct diagnostic criteria including joint hypermobility, skin hyperextensibility, and tissue fragility).

'Never Be Mine This Christmas Time' is a new single written and produced by TEM-PLE featuring the lead vocals of Janayah backed up by the London Community Gospel Choir.

The track was released on 29th November with a performance at Piccadilly Circus under a giant bill board screen that played a reportage film from the recording from the original recording session. This Christmas song is uplifting and draws on influences stretching back to the sounds of Mariah Carey and even Motown sounds from the past brought right into the 21st century.

Dean attended the tracks recording session at Metropolis Studios, images from his reportage will be released in the coming weeks on social media, Dean also popped along to the launch, above is one image he made on the night featuring Janayah and some of the members of the London Community Gospel Choir.

 'Never Be Mine This Christmas Time' is available on streaming platforms and you'll also see mention of it in the press soon.
