Description
Singer/songwriter Tim Bowness follows up 2015s Stupid Things That Mean The World Top 10 in the UK Rock, Vinyl and Prog charts with a release unlike any in his back catalogue. Lost In The Ghost Light is a concept album revolving around the onstage and backstage reflections of a fictional classic rock musician in the twilight of his career. It is a grand statement about a grand era of music making and an undoubted highlight of Bownesss career. Though firmly focused on Bownesss distinctive voice and musical approach, the album also draws inspiration from the period the concept covers and contains a notable 1970s symphonic/progressive rock influence. Mixed and mastered by Bownesss No-Man partner Steven Wilson, Lost In The Ghost Light uses a core band comprising Stephen Bennett, Colin Edwin (Porcupine Tree), Bruce Soord (The Pineapple Thief), Hux Nettermalm (Paatos) and Andrew Booker (Sanguine Hum), as well as guests including Kit Watkins (Happy The Man/Camel), Steve Bingham (No-Man) and the legendary Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull). Andrew Keeling (Robert Fripp/Hilliard Ensemble/Evelyn Glennie) arranged for string quartet and flute on three of the albums songs.
