The newest addition to my iTunes library this week is Andy Burrow’s ‘Hometown.’
You may recognize the slouchy-haired southerner bustin’ out beats with Johnny Borrell & co as well as later joining We Are Scientists. Now it looks as though Burrows has packed away his drum kit, swapped it for a guitar, a microphone and a spotlight; all set for solo stardom. He always hinted at his ability to string a harmony together, backing the vocals of Razorlight;but now, he’s taking centre stage with this beautiful track.
Recently performing on The Sunday Brunch, Burrows shows he doesn’t need to strut around shirtless on stage to be a genuine artist. All that is required are melancholic melodies and enlightening lyrics.
Come see for yourself…
