Description
Veteran songwriter Phil Langran's new album "Falling Light", sees him working again with producers Boo Hewerdine and Chris Pepper. Boo joins Phil on acoustic guitar and vocals, adding delicate textures on harmonium, piano and celeste. The stripped down, subtle production features appearance by noted guests: Gustaf Ljunggren on slide guitar, Aaron Catlow on fiddle and Pete Harvey on cello. Phil songs offer a powerful combination and slow-burning subtlety. Their melodies instantly take up residence in the mind while the lyrics pack a considerable emotional punch. This is a set to show off Phil's line in dry, laconic humour which accompanies his live shows. All but one of these twelve songs are recent - composed in the twilight zone of necessary isolation. The exception, "Dunmanus Bay", was written in the late 19080s and has proved to be a perennial favourite with audiences and fellow performers. "A fabulous writer" - Kathryn Williams. "A wonderful songwriter" - Boo Hewerdine
