This is My Truth Tell Me Yours – Manic Street Preachers, 1998.
A young fan in Liverpool listened and was inspired.
Nearly two decades later, the (now not-so-young) fan is an experienced multi-instrumentalist singer songwriter and finally ready to share his response.
Self-produced and released in September 2016, Reveal is a collection of songs exploring themes of truth, honesty, regret and rebirth. Evoking early Simple Minds, it channels the avant-garde artistry of Melt era Peter Gabriel via the soaring melodies of Vince Clarke with elements of post rock, indie pop and americana; Paul has created a deeply personal yet uplifting body of work.
