Description

The SAY Awardnominated Glasgow quartet Catholic Action will return with their sophomore album Celebrated by Strangers in March 2020. New single One Of Us packs a fuzzedout stomp alongside masterfully giddy melodies that sees lead singer and guitarist Chris McCrory recount ldquothe welfare son of a welfare sonrdquo, taking aim at the billionaireowned media and their Bullingdon Club ilk who shirk responsibility for sowing the division we see in the UK.It sets the tone for a record that asks both searching questions of the self, while pointing the finger at inaction in the wider world. Through a procession of skittish, offkilter riffs and squawking saxophones, Celebrated by Strangers doesnrsquot just call for action, it demands it. Fizzing with invention, accusation, selfbelief and creativity, it never stutters under the weight of its own message. The album was produced by lead singer and guitarist Chris McCrory SPINN, Walt Disco at Hermitage Works in London and at Shady Lane Studio in Erskine, and mixed by Rich Turvey Blossoms, Cabbage, The Coral at Parr Street Studios in Liverpool. Catholic Action Bundle is available for home delivery from Vinyl Records London, only £25
