Going Going Gone lands next month.
Building upon fervour and keen anticipation for his long-awaited and recently announced third album as Mild High Club, Alexander Brettin has resurfaced once more to share his forthcoming LP’s second preview.
With the album noted to serve an artful distillation of Brettin’s dizzying and myriad musical influences on ‘Dionysian State’ the multi-instrumentalist turns his gaze to the path carved by yacht rock forebears such as Michael McDonald, blending cinematic strings, funk-imbued keys, heady psychedelic guitar lines and swooning harmonised vocals for infectious and upbeat results that juxtapose the raised eyebrow lyrical analysis of individualism’s prevalence in America.
Mild High Club’s last album Skiptracing released to widespread acclaim in 2016.
