Description
Justin Sullivan has shaped the British punk rock scene for decades by forming one of the most influential bands in the late 20th Century British rock music: New Model Army. The singer/songwriter debuted as a solo artist in 2003 with the album “Navigating By The Stars”, described by British daily newspaper The Independent as having “the warm organic quality of Van Morrison’s Astral Weeks”.

On July 23rd, 2021, Justin Sullivan steps out from New Model Army to release his second solo album, eighteen years after the first. “Surrounded” is a collection of sixteen new songs, written in the first weeks of the 2020 lockdown. These songs are again stunning guitar-vocal compositions highlighting Sullivan’s love of storytelling, wide open landscapes and unforgettable atmospheres.

Mostly recorded at home, the album also features contributions from many other musicians including Jon Thorne on bass (Lamb), on harp Tom Moth (Florence and the Machine - and brother of NMA bassist Ceri Monger), plus string arrangements from composer friends Tobias Unterberg, Henning Nügel and Shir-Ran Yinon, Also featured are the current members of New Model Army. The album was mixed by Lee Smith at Greenmount Studios in Leeds, co-producer and mixer of New Model Army’s recent albums, including 2019’s “From Here”, their highest charting album to date globally.

I thought he had a solo live album making this new one his third? This will be added to my next order once available up here.

I stand corrected, the other album I am thinking of is Justin Sullivan and Friends.
