“Art” marks a significant milestone for Northern Irish musician Paul Archer–his first solo album in a 30-year career that spans acclaimed projects like
Disreali Gears, Ghears, and Burning Codes
This soulful collection represents a creative rebirth, thoughtfully divided between
euphoric alt-rock (recorded in Leeds with producer Andy Hawkins) and contemplative
cosmic soul (recorded in Belfast with Rick Bleakley). The album features impressive
collaborations with Duke Special, Janet Henry, Jim Lockhart (ex-Horslips), and
Jonny Quinn (ex-Snow Patrol), among others.
Released by Think Like A Key on CD with two exclusive bonus tracks, “Art” beautifully
integrates Archer’s musical vision with his Abstract Expressionist visual art, which
adorns the packaging.
A triumphant return home and artistic statement from a gifted melodicist who
continues to find light in the darkness.
