The Voice UK winners Hunni take over Newcastle night club to shoot music video

They exploded onto the music scene at the end of last year thanks to their win on The Voice UK and now Hunni, the duo formerly known as Jen and Liv have released their debut single, which comes with a video shot on home turf.

Ending up On Team Will.I.Am, after the Black Eyed Peas icon and music mogul swapped placers with ITV presenter Emma Willis as she turned her chair from them, Jen and Liv made it all the way to the grand finale, where they topped the vote to be crowned winners, collaborating with Will on a remix of Beyonce’s Break My Soul and performing a cover of Whitney Houston’s I’m Every Woman on their way to victory.

The latter quickly shot up the iTunes chart and now the Whitley Bay and County Durham singing duo, now known collectively as Hunni, are hoping that their single Heartbeat will do the same,. Released to stream and download in the early hours of Friday morning, the song is powerful pop at its best, with lyrics packed full of attitude and an instantly contagious hook.

While they have spent time away from the North East over the last 12 months, including long spells in the studio, Hunni’s music video is very much a home grown effort, shot in popular haunt The Cut in Newcastle city centre and with an entirely homegrown crew, as dancers, stylists and technicians got in on the action.

Talking to ChronicleLive, Hunni said it was very much a conscious decision to ‘keep things local’ with Jen commenting: “There is so much creativity in the North East that is often overlooked, so we wanted to showcase the talent that’s up here. Every single person involved in the video shoot is from here and wee love how it turned out.”

As they hope for success with Heartbeat, Hunni have a packed calendar over the next few months, kicking off with a headline BBC Introducing gig at The Grove on Saturday, April and also including star turns at Mouth of the Tyne and Pride in Newcastle.
