Philip ‘Seth’ Campbell Live Background Sometimes you have to live it to sing it, and songwriter Philip Seth Campbell has certainly lived it. Praised for his ability to channel a primal Springsteen howl one moment, then evoke a tender Sam Cooke croon the next, the joy with Philip is in never quite knowing which musical alley he’ll wander up when the moment takes him. An amalgamation of Philip Seth Campbell’s life and career up until this point, City Lights unfolds like a series of cinematic snapshots, captured in timeless technicolour. From the shimmery and synth-heavy, widescreen opener Magical West to plucky ballads like Break The Curse and Sober Boy and from the bluesy soulful title-track City Lights to riled-up and rocky Gut City Blues, Campbell traverses time and genre with a deft sense of musicality that glints and glimmers like an unearthed trove of deep-buried treasure. And his songwriting? Honest, unflinching, yet somehow widescreen and cinematic. Imbued with an innate sense of musicality-and born with a voice so uniquely classic it’s impossible not to love - Campbell is quite simply a musician’s musician, and one who is now calling on past experience to look to the future. This is a man with stories to tell, and songs that need to be sung. Perhaps now more than ever. https://www.facebook.com/philipsethcampbell/ Remaining Tour 2023 26 MANCHESTER The Deaf Institute More Exclusive Images: http://www.shakenstir.co.uk/gallery/?album=3903&gallery=2437 New Album Details: http://www.shakenstir.co.uk/news/phil-seth-campbell-solo-lp/ Previous Details & Interview http://www.shakenstir.co.uk/features/great-albums-fresh-new-life/ |
