Written and recorded in a tiny beach hut studio on the English coast, and notably know for his previous work with Paul Weller and The Moons, Andy Crofts’ debut solo album arrives without compromise or concession to trend. It’s a record built on melody above all else, songs that feel unearthed rather than manufactured, guided by instinct, memory, and a lifelong obsession with the craft of songwriting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrofts, long established as a songwriter and musician, steps forward here with a voice that feels both seasoned and strangely elusive.
