I Am Kloot's John Bramwell announces new album 'The Light Fantastic' out 23rd February
John Bramwell Announces The Light Fantastic New Album Released February 23rd 2024 Announces 5 Intimate Shows Including Three Shows At London’s St Pancras Old Church
One of the country’s most underrated singer-songwriters, John Bramwell, returns to the fray with a remarkable new album The Light Fantastic , out February 23rd via Townsend Music. Anyone who has heard John’s work with seminal Manchester band I Am Kloot, will be cheered by the news of this impending release. Nominated for a Mercury Prize in 2010 for their acclaimed Sky At Night album, I Am Kloot never quite received the widespread success their music deserved. This new album is a masterclass in emotionally charged and melodically driven tunes for the adventurous. All 12 tracks were written by John except for ‘Nobody Left But You’ which he co-wrote with album producer Dave Fidler. “After both my Mum and Dad died, I started writing these songs to cheer myself up,” John admits with typical candour. “The themes are taken from my dreams at the time. Wake up and take whatever impression I had from what I could remember of my dream and write that.” Despite the sentiment, the songs are surprisingly uplifting. And will no doubt sound great live. John Bramwell & The Full Harmonic will play the following shows next year. Tickets are on sale now.
