Description:

Newcastle’s extraordinary singer-songwriter Richard Dawson releases his latest album! British nihilistic bard Richard Dawson releases his new album, End of the Middle, on Domino, featuring a 40+ minute opening track for 2022’s The Ruby Cord that builds a unique worldview, and a collaboration with Finnish experimental rock band Circle to create epic songs from the perspective of a seed. He is no stranger to grandiose concepts, as in his collaboration with Finnish experimental rock band Circle, where he created an epic song from the perspective of a seed, but for this album he keeps it all simple. Only the essentials are kept and the superfluous is stripped away, resulting in nine songs that are surprisingly poised, oddly elegant, and beautiful. End of the Middle is a rich, complex, imaginative, and sensory album that has the power to draw the listener into the places and situations it describe
