Nick Mulvey
The acclaimed artist and songwriter Nick Mulvey has come a long way -- both experientially, musically and philosophically. The musician, composer and producer's work pushes boundaries in songwriting and sound, music both traditional and experimental, acoustic and electronic. A founding member of the award-winning British collective Portico Quartet, he left in 2011 to concentrate on his own material. Once solo, he released the Mercury Prize nominated debut album First Mind in 2014, and 2017's celebrated Wake Up Now, along with a number of EPs. On his forthcoming album, New Mythology, our shared humanity becomes common sense and this humanity and the natural world are enmeshed. The possibility of flourishing futures becomes real. It was recorded during the pandemic in Paris with renowned producer Renaud Letang [Manu Chao, Feist, Connan Mockasin] at Studio Ferber. Nick also credits his friends and family, teachers past and present who've helped him arrive at this point -- Now, Mulvey finds himself at the precipice of change and is ready to share his raw musings with the world.
Andrew St James
Andrew St. James has always found his voice in defining moments. The San Francisco-born songwriter spent 2020, unlike most musicians, out on the road. Performing over 100 self-described "drive-by concerts" on the sidewalks and driveways of the Bay Area, St. James unwittingly reinvented the live music experience- swapping dark clubs for daylight, distance for eye contact, all while the heft of the world- metaphorically and literally on fire- howled. In the middle of it all, he sat down in the summer of 2020 and began writing what are now his first songs to be released in two years. The result is LIGHT AFTER DARKNESS, 11 tracks that comprise his most intimate, most honest work to date, out now.
