new free single...

the second single from my debut album, ‘The Fragile State Of Inbetween’, is out today! it's called ‘When All's Done’ and can be downloaded for free! simply click here
 
it's an unabashed pop song, loaded with harmonies, some nifty drum / double bass syncopations and a flute / trumpet call-and-response solo!

“A sumptuous slice of pristinely breezy arcing love-noted sugar-pop, peppered by euphoria-heralding brass arrangements, that had us imagining Belle And Sebastian revisiting Nick Drake’s ‘The Thoughts Of Mary Jane’, under the arrangement auspices of David And Bacharach. Classy.”

new reviews...

Merlin Prog
‘The Fragile Of Inbetween’ is sophisticated pop-prog at its best. It is a charming and great album, which, in its field, stands like a monolith and supersedes most of what we have heard in the past years.

Nonpop
Rhys Marsh’s songs are a perfect match for lost-in-thought, lonely walks; for a day at the ocean; for a cooling-but-golden autumn day. Vocals alternate with orchestral passages that invite you to bask in... The world does not have to end in grey - autumn is doing fine and he is doing even more than that.

review


The Big Takeover
Nick Drake is the obvious touchstone here, but Marsh doesn’t sound like a clone. Instead, like kindred spirit Eric Matthews, Marsh is an unabashed fan of the same shimmering folk/pop sound and wants to adapt to the 21st century. Based on this beautiful record, he’s succeeded handily.
