Neville Skelly - Carousel (2014)

‘Carousel’ is the eagerly anticipated follow up to Neville Skelly’s critically acclaimed solo debut. Featuring all original songs that already have the sound of timeless classics, ‘Carousel’ was self-produced by Skelly at a friend’s house using a basic set up and an array of guest musicians including ex-Coral members.

Skelly’s dream of a voice - swooning from bass to falsetto, and coupled with his innate sense of ‘the song’ - is at the forefront, as he delivers a heartfelt, eclectic and authentic album. Ballads of intense emotion alongside jazz and folk tinged acoustics. A compelling album to savour. Will no doubt resonate with aficionados of John Martyn, Tim Buckley, Nick Drake and Van Morrison’s ‘Astral Weeks’.
