Autumn by the Sea (Muir Harbor Book 1)

Now he has a new album titled Autumn Variations.

This album is a little bit different though because this was not that it's very much something that I can't I was saying it to you in the dressing room it sort of happened by accident it was very much Yeah because you came out with an album quite recently and then you follow it up with this album and I was listening to it today and I really love it and you said yeah it actually it was sort of forming while the other album was forming which kind of blew my mind

Yeah so I had this idea well I say I had this idea my dad has my dad's full of great ideas sometimes not so great but his idea he said to me like there's this composer called Elgar and Elgar did this thing called Enigma Variations which is 14 compositions about 14 of his friends and he never told anyone who it was about and it was an enigma and he said there's never been a modern version of it wouldn't it be cool if you did a variations record so I was like oh that's fascinating actually and I was talking to Aaron who I made the record with and I was like we should do this record base it around a season and it will be variations of the season with my friends and then whilst we were making the record I had my best friend die my wife got diagnosed with a tumor and then I went into a court case and I wrote loads of songs about that in the space of that month and then because all of those songs were finished quite quickly that album was done which became Subtract but actually we were in making Variations so after all of that we went back and finished it and it was done but like songs like on if you know my album Subtract like the opening two songs were meant to be on Autumn Variations they were meant to be the first two of Autumn Variations and it just came the two sonics are very different one's quite a sad album and one's quite a sort of hopeful joyous fall album

I'm sorry I have a new album coming out I'm really excited about I'm sorry it's called it's called Autumn Variations

I'm kind of got to manage my expectations on this record though because you know there's not a single that goes to radio or like a big major label push but it's basically just it's an album that I made that it is what it is and I've just got to be like I listened to it today it's really beautiful I loved it and like I say this will lead you to the next level
