Constellations For The Lonely

Constellations For The Lonely cover art

Born from a turbulent period that saw frontman Jimi Goodwin sidelined for health reasons, 'Constellations For The Lonely' is a thematically dark and cathartic album, described by the band as a 'future soul' record for outsiders. The production cultivates a sound that is both claustrophobic and sonically widescreen, featuring cinematic strings and layered atmospherics. Reflecting the band's collective perseverance, lead vocal duties are shared amongst all three members, with brothers Jez and Andy Williams stepping to the forefront on several tracks for the first time since 2005.
