Cinquième album en solo (déjà) pour l’ami Kele Orekeke de Bloc Party et l’album « The Waves Part 1 » prévu le 28 Mai prochain. Pour la peine, son premier single est une reprise du titre de Bronski Beat datant de 1984. Il faut dire que le frontman annonce que l’album tire son inspiration des musiques de films, de la musique classique tout en proposant des paroles qui transformeraient les sujets traditionnels de la musique pop en passages méditatifs… Okay Kele.
« We were due to start working on my second musical with the Lyric Theatre but when the lockdown came into effect those plans were thrown into disarray. I became a stay at home dad of a 3 year old and a 6 month old. What also became clear was that I still had the desire to create… I knew I had to fill in the space of this record entirely by myself, which was daunting but also very liberating. This album is literally the sound of me.”
