Album Notes & Community Reviews

Opting for a highly unconventional approach to recording a studio album, the legendary British folk-rock guitarist debuted thirteen entirely new compositions directly in front of a live audience. Captured over several nights in California, the project blends his masterful, intricate acoustic fingerpicking with biting, politically charged lyrical narratives.
