To The Bone UK tour review roundup

UK newspaper The Sun review one of last week’s Royal Albert Hall shows, saying “A stunning sound and light show, including holograms and animation, plus a superb band and you had one of the best shows of the year – and it’s only March”. You can read the full review here.

Meanwhile Prog magazine give the Warwick Arts Centre show a 2 page review: “…spectacular. Nowhere Now glides by in a rush of The Who power chords with a spiralling Pink Floyd chorus. A dreamlike Pariah features a digital duet with Ninet Tayeb, her face projected 20-feet high”, and “Song of I is a dramatic, widescreen wonder, making the point in a complicated Venn diagram where Ulver, Depeche Mode and Portishead collide. It’s all very loud, surprisingly heavy and has an aggressive, occasionally violent sheen. And it’s all done without losing any of the elegant, uplifting beauty of the composition”.

Record Store Day 2018 Signing Session in Montreal

On Record Store Day 2018 (21st April) an exclusive 12 inch single How Big the Space will be released on Caroline/Universal, featuring a previously unavailable song recorded during the To the Bone sessions (see here for full details). As I will be in Montreal for a show on 21st April, I’m going to drop by local record store Aux 33 Tours between 1.30pm and 2.30pm to sign copies of the single and To the Bone, so please come along if you would like to say hello. As always I respectfully request that you only bring these 2 records to be signed, and not your entire SW collection!

Record Store Day will also see a first ever vinyl release for my first Bass Communion album as a double LP on the Adasam/Hidden Art label.
