about

Following 2016’s much praised ‘Kingsdown Sundown’ and a sold out show at London’s Union Chapel, the new album marks a distinct change of direction for the singer songwriter, being the first time he has recorded with a full backing band. Produced by Cameron McVey (Massive Attack, Portishead, Neneh Cherry), the new album expands on the pared back musical palette of Varley’s previous sound, all the while retaining his gift for painterly, affirming and immediate lyric writing.

Aided by McVey’s nuanced, widescreen production and the warm cascading sound of his new band, ‘All Those Stars’ offers the perfect first glimpse into ‘Spirit Of Minnie’, straddling Will's sound and style from past to present. Counting the likes of Billy Bragg, Valerie June and Frank Turner as his fans, and with tours scheduled across Europe and America, the young songwriter from Deal seems poised for a huge 2018.

This album has become more relevant the more time goes on, although I know that's not what Sean or the rest of the band were hoping for. If not for subject matter, the sound continues to grow on me heavy. The textures and melodies across the album are so unique to AJJ, and are presented in a way that only this band could really pull off. uglymormon
