Playful and melancholic in equal measure, Baxter Dury builds a distinctly British world where wit and vulnerability sit side by side. Released in 2011, Happy Soup is the critically acclaimed third album from the English singer-songwriter.
Famously described by Dury as “seaside psychedelia”, the record blends his droll spoken-word observations and deadpan delivery with breezy, minimalist indie-pop. Sweet backing vocals from Madelaine Hart add real warmth, giving these sharp, offbeat songs an easy charm that lingers.
