The Soft Struggles - David Brewis [CD]

David Brewis of the band Field Music releases his debut solo record 'The Soft Struggles' on 24 February 2023. After three albums as School of Language, David Brewis's next contribution to the ever-expanding Field Music universe is this jazz-inflected acoustic record. It will also be the second album release on Field Music's newly formed Daylight Saving Records label, intended as the home for the Brewis brothers' extra-curricular projects. 'The Soft Struggles' veers away from Field Music's eclectic palette and instead leans into the luminous spontaneity of Van Morrison's Astral Weeks and the breathy, string-laden chamber pop of Colin Blunstone's One Year. Several of the tracks were built around a single day of live recording at Field Music's studio in Sunderland, with David's brother Peter on drums, Sarah Hayes (Admiral Fallow, You Tell Me) on piano and flute and Faye MacCalman (Archipelago) on clarinet and saxophone.
