Monument

A singer, songwriter, composer, and illustrator who rarely performs live due to chronic anxiety, Keaton Henson emerged in the public sphere in the early 2010s with his critically acclaimed debut album Dear. His last studio album, 2016's Kindly Now, reach the top 20 of Billboards Heatseekers chart. Following a world premiere in London by Britain Sinfonia, his orchestral work, Six Lethargies, was released on Decca imprint Mercury KX in 2019. His Monument tackles his his father's illness and tragic passing last year. While the subject matter is heavy, the stunning and powerful album is beautifully written and lyrically it's sublime.
