Product Overview
Bobby Gillespie & Jehnny Beth - Utopian Ashes (LP) Primal Scream frontman Bobby Gillespie, alongside solo artist and Savages vocalist Jehnny Beth, presents this stunning debut solo project collection - exploring loss, miscommunication and emotional inarticulacy that a married couple experience as they realise that their relationship is breaking down. ÜUtopian Ashesâ draws on the tradition of country soul classics, such as Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harrisâs ÜGrievous Angelâ and George Jones and Tammy Wynetteâs ÜWe Go Togetherâ, to deal with the heavy realities of love turning sour. Itâs an album for people who have dealt with the inevitable sadness that comes with age and acknowledged the realities of life. There is no sweetening of the pill, but it does achieve what should be the goal of all good art: to make us feel less alone. And while itâs not autobiographical, it channels heartfelt truth from the songwritersâ own experiences. In addition to Bobby Gillespie and Jehnny Beth, the album features Johnny Hostile (bass) alongside Primal Scream trio Andrew Innes (guitar), Martin Duffy (piano) and Darrin Mooney (drums).
