Keaton Henson āHuskā fromĀ āMonumentāĀ released October 2020 on Play it Again Sam
Keaton Hensonās music deserves all the devotion and respect it gets. From his cavernously personal home recorded debut āDearā in 2012 to the more recent tense and tormented orchestral āSix Lethargiesā he always makes that emotional connection. His songs, his experiences become yours.Ā
Keaton sees āHuskā as a song about āwaking up and realising that youāve agedā butĀ thereās a zesty sense of possibility as the tune eases between stripped down pensiveness and a wave of rich pop hope. Itās that delicate balance between love and pain, revival and regret that he so often manages to navigate for us. So although āMonumentā is an album grounded in loss, unfolding as it did at the time of his fatherās death, its honesty is uplifting. Ā
