{"product_id":"grace-henry-things-are-moving-all-around-me","title":"Grace, Henry - Things Are Moving All Around Me","description":"A bold and moving\nleap forward, shaped by the wide-open spaces of Grace's adopted California and the\nintimate venues of his hometown of London. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'\u003ci\u003eThings Are Moving All Around Me\u003c\/i\u003e' has been an album years in the making. Grace and\nHarrison first met at a songwriting retreat organised by Chris Difford at Pennard\nHouse in Somerset in 2022. Stealing away to a quiet church across the road, they\nwrote their first song together and, upon returning to London, started working on a\nnew batch of songs Grace had been writing and soon had the early makings of a new\nalbum.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nUnlike the stark and sparse arrangements from 'Alive In America', early demos hinted\nat a new sound that was more transatlantic and, most noticeably, band- driven with\nGrace joined by Harrsion on keys and backing vocals alongside Brian Love on guitar,\nTom Holder from The Heavy Heavy on bass and Toby Evangelou on drums.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nFrom explosive opener, 'Rust', to hooky first single, 'Say Something Mean', and The War\nOn Drugs-inspired 'Passing Through', there is a restless sense of yearning in each of\nthe album's ten tracks. This is a record of transitions. Of start and end points and the\nplaces in between. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSongs like 'This Is The Place' see the London born artist writing\nabout the city he grew up in and there are elements of Springsteen in the frustration\nand isolation of his lyrics. In fact, Springsteen's 'Nebraska' was the inspiration for their\ndecision to record the song using a 4-track Tascam recorder.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e A richer, more layered\noffering, 'Things' starts with just an acoustic guitar and vocal and grows into a warm\ntapestry of sound filled with strings, synthesizers, wide- panned guitars, percussion\nand the airy drone of wine glasses as he recalls the early stages of love amid a\ncacophony of sound. 'Moving On', 'Medicine' and 'Leaving Song' remind us that we are\nlistening to a band playing live in a room. Drums spill out down vocal mics as the\nwarm fuzz of amplifiers and squeaky floorboards all become part of the sonic\nlandscape. 'California Rain' pays tribute to Grace's time in America while the delicate\nfinal track, 'Days Like This', tells the story of making roots somewhere new.","brand":"At Last (Code 7)","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":50804594311446,"sku":"RMX-59359","price":31.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7750\/2998\/files\/d5bde4e62bdd7d406422020a09c6fc65.jpg?v=1764943046","url":"https:\/\/resident-music-uk.myshopify.com\/products\/grace-henry-things-are-moving-all-around-me","provider":"Resident Music UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
