His newly released sophomore record ‘Crucible’, recorded at Echo Zoo Studios has been priased by Louder Than War as ‘one of the albums of the year without doubt.’ The ‘blisfully atypical’ collection of songs explores memory, economics, London and literature, weaving heartfelt vocals around a smorgasbord of analogue synths, guitars, flugelhorns and battered drums. Crucible has been receiving regular airplay on BBC 6 Music, BBC London and BBC Introducing, numerous features on Baeble Music and ‘Tune of the Day’ recommendations on AmazingTunes. Drew will be touring in early spring 2016. @drewworthley @gifford_head Sign me up About 6 days ago from Drew Worthley's Twitter via Twitter for Android @rllyquitetired Sure About 2 weeks ago from Drew Worthley's Twitter via Twitter Web App @rllyquitetired That special Shanty Sauce doesn't come cheap. Presumably many sailors are involved in its making. About 2 weeks ago from Drew Worthley's Twitter via Twitter Web App @rllyquitetired @memorialdevice I had always wondered where my penchant for Shanty Salads came from About 2 weeks ago from Drew Worthley's Twitter via Twitter Web App @RateMyBuffers My 5-year old was very happy with Brighton's efforts at Platform 3 but wants the official verdict please! pic.twitter.com/ONUrNN67N7 Last month from Drew Worthley's Twitter via Twitter Web App “Its charm and downright insubordinate addictiveness shines through on each and every one of Crucible’s eleven tracks…In short, Crucible is a quite luscious album on many levels. Drew Worthley is clearly an exciting, talented and unique artist, and if this is the sort of quality he can produce on a difficult second album then there are potentially amazing times ahead. 8.5/10” Louder Than War “Sonically, the track combines Phil Spector’s wall of sound with a titanic swell and cinematic tension that play into the beauty and grandness of the track’s emotional themes…His songwriting is a type that breaks down many boundaries” Baebel Music “Makes you want to just stop everything and simply listen.” Indiemunity “The East Londoner plays well, a sort of retro pop made new again.” Glacially Musical “This is a stunning release with beautifully crafted songs and arrangements, really engaging lyrically and musically as it shifts from incisive folk to tracks of almost pastoral pop.” Curved Radio (Australia) “Is this the first song to mention Bamber Boozler?” Teletextr Podcastr LINKS: http://www.drewworthley.co.uk http://www.facebook.com/drewworthley http://www.twitter.com/drewworthley http://www.drewworthley.com/bandcamp http://www.soundcloud.com/drew-worthley http://www.youtube.com/user/drewstaton http://www.instagram.com/drewworthleymusic/ Comments
