A tour-de-force folk-leaning psychedelic album, and a career milestone. Midlake’s A Bridge to Far is out this week on @mrsimonraymonde.bsky.social’s @bellaunion.bsky.social. I’ve looked at it for @theartsdesk.bsky.social: www.theartsdesk.com/new-music/mi...
Just finished @mrsimonraymonde.bsky.social’s wonderful memoir, interesting and insightful, Simon is modest, humble and thankful - some incredible “sliding doors” moments (eg the Mexico City incident, crikey). A joy to discover his father Ivor too, what a career HE had. A great read, many thanks 🙏
Hahaha great shots of the audience at the end made me laugh
