Description

This is undoubtedly one of the most important singer songwriter records that will emerge this year.

Bill Ryder-Jones left The Coral after their fifth studio album, Roots & Echoes, on which his arrangements hinted at a deeper and spectacular compositional talent. Last year Ryder-Jones explored this side of his creative talent in full with the orchestral album If, which was a grand imaginary soundtrack to Italo Calvinos post modernist novel If On A Winters Night A
Traveller.

Now Ryder-Jones has completed his new album, A Bad Wind Blows In My Heart, which marries his masterful capacities as arranger and composer with his first firm steps as a singer songwriter. Its an album of songs that will please those that appreciate his knack for heart-swelling melody and painterly detail.
