“Crying The Neck”
With seven marvelous albums under his musical belt, including 2003’s Lycanthropy, 2005’s Wind In The Wires and his latest album Crying The Neck, which broke a nearly fifteen-year hiatus from recorded music, Patrick Wolf is a wondrous talent. The London-born musician is one of the most arresting artists on the planet–his songs effortlessly meld trip-hop, electronica and indie rock into some of the most compelling, dramatic and altogether moving compositions you’re likely to hear. Wolf’s music is literary, emotionally precise and sonically arresting. I know a lot of people say his music is baroque and that’s not too far off the mark, but an easier way to think of it is Tricky by way of Scott Walker. A multi-instrumentalist, a model, a producer, a playwright a label owner, a poet, and a student at Trinity College, Wolff has played with Arcade Fire, Patti Smith and The Hidden Cameras. He’s the recipient of The Edmund Burke Medal from Trinity College Historical Society, Dublin for his Outstanding Contribution to Discourse through the Arts and he’s on tour this summer.
