Overview
Following the incredible success of his top 6 debut solo album 'Young Pilgrim', Charlie Simpson is to release a brand new EP - 'Farmer & His Gun' on March 25th. The EP coincides with his UK tour and biggest solo show to date at London's Koko on March 22nd.
The EP will contain four tracks, including a re-recorded version of Farmer & His Gun, the original home recorded demo, 'Barricades Of Heaven' (Jackson Browne cover) and 'Lost'. The EP will be made available as a digital download, CD and two 7" Vinyls and will be accompanied by a video from acclaimed animation director Alice Dupre who's previous work includes 'Scott Pilgrim vs The World' and 'Nanny McPhee'.
'Young Pilgrim' saw Charlie join forces with acclaimed producer Danton Supple (Coldplay, Doves) to begin recording the album. The result is an accomplished 12 track record that emanates vintage warmth and whose luscious melodies and occasional imperfections lend it a vibrant character and earnest charm.
