40 Watt Sun announce new album ‘Perfect Light’

40 WATT SUN have announced a new album!

Titled Perfect Light, the upcoming album from the project fronted by Patrick Walker, is the follow-up to 2016’s Wider Than The Sky and is scheduled to be released in January next year, via Cappio Records/Svart Records.

The upcoming album is a collection of eight songs recorded across a year, in Hertfordshire (Chat Bizarre Studios) and London (Holy Mountain Studios). Whilst band mastermind Patrick Walker‘s vivid melodies remain as powerful as ever, and his familiar lyrical themes and fixations continue to haunt this new album of material, the music itself marks another transition in the development of his songwriting.

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released the first song from the upcoming album; The Spaces In Between. Joining Walker, the track features guest musicians Ajit Gill, drummer of London-based progressive jazz band VERTAAL, bass player Ryan Cowell, and pianist Chris Redman.
