Brett Anderson releases a brand new solo album “Black Rainbows” on EMI Records on 26 September. The album is preceded by the single “Brittle Heart” which is available as a download on 15 August and receives its debut radio play on XFM’s breakfast show on the same day. Watch the video below.
The album sees Brett return to the rock format he is most identified with through his work with Suede and is the first rock album he has made for 6 years. It was conceived over a 3 day session in January last year when Brett, producer Leo Abrahams, Seb Rochford and Leopold Ross worked on 20 different pieces, which gradually evolved into songs. Anderson describes the album as “restless, noisy and dynamic. Electric guitars, bass, drums and vocals – no flute players, no strings, no gimmicks, just passion”. Both the single and album were produced by Leo Abrahams and appear as part of a new deal with EMI Records. Brett will play two live dates in October, for which tickets are now on sale. The dates are:
