Info for New Gods (2022 Remaster)

Fortuna Pop veröffentlicht das neue Album des in Edinburgh lebenden Folk-Rock-Troubadours Dan Willson, der unter dem Namen Withered Hand auftritt. New Gods" ist sein beeindruckendes zweites Album nach seinem von der Kritik gefeierten Debüt "Good News". Das lang erwartete neue Album (produziert von Tony Doogan - The Pastels, Mountain Goats, Belle and Sebastian usw.) enthält Gastauftritte von Pam Berry, Eugene Kelly von The Vaselines und Mitgliedern von Belle and Sebastian und Frightened Rabbit. Es ist eine bemerkenswerte Leistung, voll von herzlichen Liedern, die Melodie und Melodieführung nicht dem oft allzu ernsten Singer-Songwriter-Dasein opfern. Hier sind ein ausgeprägter Witz und Sinn für Humor am Werk, und eine ganz eigene Stimme. Die Bezeichnung "Folk" oder "Pop" sagt nur einen Teil der Geschichte aus - die Musik von Withered Hand ist wunderschön, melodisch, ehrlich und lässt sich nicht so einfach kategorisieren.

Withered Hand

Dan Willson aka Withered Hand
Based in Edinburgh, Scottish indie folk-pop act Withered Hand is the solo project of singer/songwriter Dan Willson. A veteran of multiple bands in late-'90s and early-2000s Edinburgh music scene, Willson began his solo career after receiving an acoustic guitar from his wife as a 30th birthday gift. Migrating slowly from bandmate to solo artist, he began singing and writing his own loose, jangly songs, eventually releasing his debut EP, Religious Songs, under the moniker Withered Hand. Finding immediate success with the new format, Willson released a second EP in 2009 before teaming up with legendary American producer Kramer to make his first full-length album, Good News, in 2010. With his ragged tenor and often lo-fi, acoustic-based sound, Willson has come to represent a certain standard in the U.K. D.I.Y. scene and was a part of the Fife-based Fence Collective with acts like King Creosote and James Yorkston. Two more Withered Hand EPs appeared in 2012 before Willson returned to the studio to record his follow-up LP. His second full-length, New Gods, was released in early 2014 by Fortuna Pop and Slumberland. The record was produced by Tony Doogan (Mountain Goats, Belle and Sebastian) and features help from Black Tambourine's Pam Berry, Eugene Kelly of the Vaselines, and members of Belle and Sebastian and Frightened Rabbit.

This album contains no booklet.
