Tim Bowness releases new music video for ‘Northern Rain’

TIM BOWNESS has released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Northern Rain, is taken from the English musician’s upcoming new solo album, Late Night Laments, which is scheduled to be released later this month, via InsideOut Music.

The new song was mixed by his longtime partner in NO-MAN Steven Wilson and mastered by Calum Malcolm [THE BLUE NILE, PREFAB SPROUT]. Co-produced by Bowness and Brian Hulse, Northern Rain combines electronic soundscapes and acoustic percussion with a powerfully emotional lyric and melody. Melanie Woods [SIDI BOU SAID/KNIFEWORLD] and Evan Carson [KATE RUSBY/IAMTHEMORNING] guest.

Speaking about the new song, Bowness says, “to an extent, this is about a person seeing their partner slowly descend into the fog of dementia, reflecting on their life together and coming to terms with their powerlessness and eventual demise, and the ever-changing nature of the world. I’m more of a ‘rage against the dying of the light’ person, but this is a song of blissful acceptance.”
