House Party

After an unpredictable stretch of releases that found spotlight-avoiding U.K. musician Keaton Henson deviating from intimate singer/songwriter fare and into areas such as experimental electronic music, instrumental chamber works, and back again for 2020's very personal Monument, he approached his eighth proper studio album (depending on how you count) with a character in mind: a more confident, fame-seeking alternative version of himself.

Chartering into new depths of delicate storytelling, House Party follows “an artist who has hollowed himself out over a long career in the name of success.”
