MESSAGE TO BEARS

Message to Bears is multi-instrumentalist Jerome Alexander. He has recently released a new album, Folding Leaves, and it’s fucking great. It’s an album which has some great ambient beats to act as a foundation which allows the vocals and strings and samples and piano and xylophones and so forth, to soar.

I can’t recommend it enough. So what’s it about.

The loose theme of the album, to put it simply is sort of the idea of having a desire to run away/escape when all you needed was right where you are.

I did sense that element of travel/travelling on the album, so I asked him a question about where the most beautiful place he had visited was. (Though with such an intriguing answer I should have asked what the best thing about being at home was.)

Probably the Iguazu waterfalls in Brazil, absolutely incredible.

I’m gonna try and catch a live offering when it roles in to town because the sound is so intriguing. I asked what the live show will be like, that answer is below as is the album (The physical's a sellout). Enjoy.

The live show includes a small ensemble, it's quite different to the recorded material actually, less ambient and louder.

Ambient. On free download.

dying embers

By way on an apology I will put up a new track every day between now and Easter. Hopefully.
