Arcade

"Arcade" finds Danny George Wilson returning to Hamish Benjamin’s studio in East Sussex, 5 years on from his startling, post lockdown album, "Another Place", to construct its sequel. With Lewes based Benjamin and right-hand man Henry Garratt again given free rein, "Arcade" presents a fresh collection of sonically inventive, deeply romantic songs with atmosphere taking primacy over meaning, and narrative dissolving.

About the new single, "Distant Sesons", Danny says, "it’s a song about an imagined return. There’s a wonderfully melancholic string section and arrangement, by producer Hamish Benjamin, which is something of a theme throughout the album. As is the case with the new album, it’s about losing people, time and place. Sonically it’s both rootsy and experimental, a kind of altered earthiness”.
