You Are More Beautiful - Blue Vinyl - LP

3HEAD, the diverse, multi-cultural collective of independently recognised musicians announce the release of the album 'You Are More Beautiful' on Creation Youth. 3HEAD's founder Al Macaulay (Producer/Drums/Keys - Tindersticks/Cousteau/Scott4), describes the album as, innocence amongst the concrete, psychedelic but dancey, faux naive but heartfelt. Wah wah, conga driven pre House. Alongside Macaulay, 3Head comprise Calina de la Mare (Violinist/Composer - Tindersticks, Cast, Nerina Pallot, Barry Adamson) and Ras B (Vocals/Toasting - Faultline, The Bug, On u Sound), Youth (Bass/Album production - Killing Joke/The Orb). The album 'You Are More Beautiful' was recorded at Youth's Space Mountain studio in August 2024. On working with Youth, Macaulay says, The album needed guitar and some bass as I'd only done midi bass on some songs, so apart from being a producer who we thought would understand our music (heavy bass, tribal but also with strings), he was ideal to fill in those gaps. Other collaborators on the album include Spider Johnson (Vocals/Toasting - Madness, UB40, Lee 'Scratch' Perry), who guests on 3 tracks as co-vocalist, Lara Basakinci (Vocals), Sarah Wilson (cello - Belle and Sebastian) Lucy Wilkins (Roxy Music) and Sophie Sirota (Paul Weller, Kim Deal). A beguiling mix of epic, steaming dub, flecked with frantic toasting, molten soul vocals all underpinned by deft breakbeats.haunted and haunting 3HEAD create a throbbing underworld all their own - Time Out
