Guy Garvey to release solo album
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 30 September 2015
Elbow frontman Guy Garvey will release his debut solo album, ‘Courting The Squall’, on 30 Oct. Leading up to this, he has released the video for lead track, ‘Angela’s Eyes’.
Explains the musician: “Elbow graciously gave me some time to write a solo album. I’ve wanted to try for years and I’m really proud of it. [I say] ‘solo’ because I wrote everything, but I was far from alone. I invited my favourite players outside of Elbow (many of them also my favourite people) and we moved fast, drank a lot and had what can only be described as a massive laugh along the way”.
Following the release of the album, Garvey will also head out on a short tour of the British Isles in December, kicking off with two nights at London’s Shepherds Bush Empire.
Here are the full dates:
1 Dec: London, Shepherds Bush Empire
2 Dec: London, Shepherds Bush Empire
4 Dec: Manchester, Albert Hall
5 Dec: Manchester, Albert Hall
7 Dec: Dublin, Olympia
8 Dec: Glasgow, ABC
And now, here’s the video for ‘Angela’s Eyes’:
