  • Description

    'I Dreamt I Was An Astronaut' is the debut album of London-based singer-songwriter Jeremy Tuplin and follows 2 independently released EPs: Open Letters (2016) and Carry The Fire (2014).


    Recorded with long-time collaborator Mark Estall at Marketstall Studio, South Bermondsey with some recordings taking place in both Tuplin's and Estall's living rooms, the album combines electronic and synthesised sounds with acoustic and organic instruments for a 'retro-futuristic feel' branching into a genre which could be described as 'space-folk'. The theme that underpins this album is escapism, and with that, visions of the cosmos - a debut worthy of attention.


    His voice has a uniqueness expressing itself through the less commonly explored lower register and his song-writing extends beyond the conventions of the genre. In the words of BBC 6Music's Tom Robinson, his music is: "Unconventional, conversational and intimate."


    The Telegraph Culture Section described his music as, "Stunningly candid...A distinctive deep vocal that has hints of Leonard Cohen and Bill Callahan."


    Clash Music observed, "A cosmic gem..." with Tuplin "Cooking up something special."
