Lady’s Bridge

Richard Hawley

Orchestral pop and rockabilly rhythms meeting in a rain-slicked city. A baritone croon that feels like a warm coat against a cold Sheffield night.

August 20, 2007 · EMI

Find on Amazon

A warm, nocturnal romanticism that finds grandeur in the quiet corners of a working-class city.

Moments Worth Listening For
The soaring string section that carries the chorus of Tonight the Streets Are Ours into a moment of pure cinematic defiance.
The transition from the sparse acoustic opening of Lady Solitude into its deep, cavernous reverb-soaked finale.
The way the tremolo guitar on Dark Road mimics the flickering of old streetlights.
