Phantom Birds

Mr Ghoul Matt's music is as delightful as his acting (which is very delightful) I find there's quite a bit of depth to his work, getting some hints of early 60's rock/surfer rock/jazz in That Yellow Birds. Favorite track: That Yellow Birds.

woe_bonnet Picketh a fav'rite track? Pusheth off. This album's only mission hast ev'r been to taketh a c're sample of int'rstellar choogle.

Mission accomplish'd.

jennhomer New to the genius that is Matt Berry -- LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS!!!!! Favorite track: Something In My Eye.

about

BAFTA award winning actor Matt Berry has been the star of a series of high profile TV series including Toast Of London, The IT Crowd and most recently What We Do In The Shadows. Concurrently he has cultivated a career as a musician that has seen him release 6 solo albums and collaborate with the likes of Bond composer David Arnold, Jean-Michel Jarre and most recently Josh Homme who invited him to perform on the Desert Sessions.

His most recent album ‘TV Themes’ was a UK Top 40 hit, which was awarded four stars by Will Hodgkinson writing for The Times. His reinterpretation of British TV themes of the past was no mere wallow in nostalgia, but an exploration of recording techniques and a joyous celebration of the music.

‘Phantom Birds’ was inspired by a fascination with Bob Dylan’s John Wesley Harding, the way it was recorded with the minimum of musicians to draw attention to the songs. For the recording Matt worked with drummer Craig Blundell – known for his work with Steven Wilson and Steve Hackett – and legendary pedal steel player B J Cole, yet the tinges of Americana are never allowed to overwhelm Matt’s own distinctive style.

Released 18th September 2020. All orders will be shipped out on the week of release. Please be patient.

Ordering from the USA? Please note as of the 1st July the price of sending International Standard parcels to the US has increased by 49% on average. This is partly due to the impact on the Coronavirus pandemic as the Royal Mail carry most of it’s international mail on commercial passenger flights but also due to the US policy towards incoming mail from outside of the USA. We ensure that we only charge cost price on our postage and will continue to assess the situation to try and get your records to you as cheaply as possible.
