• Bill Ryder-Jones will return with his fifth album Iechyd Da. Single “This Can’t Go On” features strings from a 1978 Flashlight song. It captures Ryder-Jones out in the pitch black of night, walking the streets, feeling lost, empty, and “on my way to a breakdown” he says. The resulting song however, is a towering piece of music that is bold and expansive, existing in a seamless duality with some of Ryder-Jones’ most vulnerable, exposed and tender lyrics. “I feel like a little boy,” he sings at one point, an admission in vivid contrast to the almost triumphant music that carries those words.
• Iechyd Da is a record that is rooted in love, loss, pain, heartache and often a deep darkness, but also one that frequently ends up in places of profound beauty, hope and joy. “I love this album,” says Bill, “I haven't been this proud of a record since A Bad Wind Blows in My Heart.”
