Haydon Spenceley's Second Album 'Heart Strings' Coming In November
Two years on from the release of his critically acclaimed debut solo album 'Circles', Haydon Spenceley returns with his new album 'Heart Strings' on 22nd November 2010. Released on bright new independent Knuci Records, 'Heart Strings' is the culmination of two years of writing and recording for former Freeslave frontman Haydon, building on the electronica-tinged pop of his debut solo album and adding to it a satisfyingly-gritty rock sheen.
"Brimming with confidence, passion and soul, 'Heart Strings' showcases an artist at the peak of his wildly creative form", says Haydon's press release. "From the pop-rock bombast of the opening title track, through the twists and turns of this, the quintessential British indie rock album, all the way to epic closer, Masterplan, this is an album with integrity and passion in spades. Co-produced and mixed by Harun Kotch and Ross Gill (Replenish) and mastered by Nigel Palmer, 'Heart Strings' is a startling statement of intent as one decade ends and another begins."
The album sees the all-out rock of 'Lay it Down' sandwiched between the groove-based electronica of 'Lost My Heart' and the anthemic 'King of Glory'. Elsewhere, 'Hiding Place' and 'Save My Day' are rocking songs of hope and faith, while the beautiful 'Crying' offers an alternative perspective on injustice, violence and terrorism, poignant in these difficult times.
