Notes
2014 sophomore album from the Liverpudlian singer/songwriter. CAROUSEL is the eagerly anticipated follow up to Skelly's critically acclaimed solo debut THE POET & THE DREAMER. Featuring all original songs that already have the sound of timeless classics, Carousel was self-produced by Skelly at a friend's house using a basic set up and an array of guest musicians including ex-Coral members. Skelly's dream of a voice - swooning from bass to falsetto, and coupled with his innate sense of 'the song' - is at the forefront, as he delivers a heartfelt, eclectic and authentic album. Ballads of intense emotion alongside jazz and folk tinged acoustics. A compelling album to savor. Will no doubt resonate with aficionados of John Martyn, Tim Buckley, Nick Drake and Van Morrison's Astral Weeks.
