Bruce Soord was recorded during the summer of 2015 at Soord’s U.K. studio. All the tracks were written and performed by Soord with Darran Charles (Godsticks) playing additional guitar.
Having wanted to make a solo album for many years, Soord found himself taking surprising paths to create this record; here he has explored the softer, dreamier side of his song-writing – more acoustic in nature, while retaining depth in its arrangement.
Revisiting his life to find inspiration for the songs, this record is a celebration of the past as much as it is an epitaph of times past. While the songs describe a sense of the past that has been lost, it is also pays homage to Soord’s wonderful and artistically decaying childhood town.
Soord recently premiered the songs live with a U.K. tour supporting label mates Sweet Billy Pilgrim.
