Brit folk and songwriter pop at the highest level: Prolific singer-songwriter Kathryn Williams and recently reinvigorated troubadour Dan Willson (aka Withered Hand) have announced a collaboration album, “Willson Williams”.
“Willson Williams” witnesses the meeting of two likeminded musicians who’ve built their successful, independent careers on inventive folk instrumentation, reflective and sincere lyricism, and not a small amount of self-deprecation. Their modest confessionals, written poetically and over nostalgic and atmospheric melodies, are as relatable as ever, and together they find new ways to unpack their feelings.

After the 2020 album “Paradise”, a politically charged look at life in their hometown of Aberdeen, and “Goodbye To Misery” from 2022, Cold Years return in 2024 with their most triumphant work to date, “A Different Life”.
Recorded at Barber Shop Studios in New Jersey by producer Brett Romnes (Hot Mulligan, Boston Manor, Heart Attack Man, Brand New) and mastered by Rogue Planet Mastering (Against The Current, A Day To Remember, The Bronx), ‘A Different Life’ is packed with songs that are both deeply personal and universally relatable. First single ‘Roll With It’ is a haunting, socially charged punk rock anthem with an infectious chorus that feels like it’s been waiting forever to erupt at any moment.
“Life isn’t easy to deal with. Between long days at work slaving away, trying to see family and friends, and occasionally engaging in self-destructive behavior, sometimes it’s natural to want more. This song is about wanting more from your life – the person you used to be doesn’t exist anymore.”

More than six decades into a remarkable career, few command and deserve our reverence quite like Charles McPherson.”

Studio Masters, Official Digital Download | Front Cover | © Delphian Records
Brindley Sherratt’s pre-eminence as an operatic bass is the result of two daring career shifts. Initially trained as a trumpeter, he gave up his first instrument as a student to become a singer. Yet even then, it was only in his mid-thirties that he left the professional security of a position in the BBC Singers to explore the world of opera. Now, the voyage of discovery continues as Sherratt turns to the intimate medium of the song recital. With the superb pianist Julius Drake as collaborator, in Fear No More Sherratt draws on all of his accumulated technical and expressive wisdom to traverse death-haunted songs by Schubert, Mussorgsky and Richard Strauss before arriving at a final group of five twentieth-century English songs in which consolation and acceptance are the keynotes.

On his second album for Sony Classical violinist Luka Faulisi presents a highly individual interpretation of Vivaldi’s pioneering masterpiece, ‘The Four Seasons’. The violinist’s cinematic approach to ‘The Four Seasons’ involved encouraging members of the orchestra to engage with the composer’s onomatopoeic animal and nature sounds and adding percussion not found in the original scores. Faulisi has also opted to splice Vivaldi’s concertos with three complementary works inspired by the seasons: a traditional Catalan melody made famous by Pablo Casals, ‘El cant dels ocells’; the haunting ‘Nocturne’ by Lili Boulanger; and an excerpt from Tchaikovsky’s ‘The Seasons’, ‘October – Autumn Song’, a piece of understated romanticism inspired by Tolstoy.
