IT’S been 21 years since David Gray’s stripped-back debut album A Century Ends and the 46-yearold Manchester singer-songwriter returns with his 11th studio album, Mutineers. Gray coffers fans a different sound, with this latest release being much less acoustic, but still retaining the infamous heartfelt lyric Gray’s famous for.
Lead single and album opener Back In The World hits with its catchy drumbeat, while the title track has that high-low tone he has so perfected. Fans will be happy to hear the romantic anthems Last Summer and Snow In Vegas, along with the sombre Birds Of The High Arctic. Stirring stuff.
