Album Notes & Community Reviews

Transitioning entirely away from his early acoustic folk origins, the British singer-songwriter embraced atmospheric synthesizers and electric guitars for this moody release. 'The Wild Places' features a distinct, nocturnal art-pop aesthetic, characterized by its introspective lyricism and the sweeping, dramatic title track.
