'Ghosts In The Park', his latest solo album, is his most personal \u0026amp; unguarded work to date: a record shaped by loss, memory, \u0026amp; the quiet spaces that reveal themselves when life continues to move while everything else appears to stop.\u003cbr\u003eWritten over a two-year period while Soord was touring extensively with The Pineapple Thief, the album emerged in hotel rooms, unfamiliar cities, \u0026amp; moments of enforced solitude. Against this backdrop, Soord was navigating the drawn-out decline \u0026amp; eventual death of his father, alongside the continued progression of his mother's Alzheimer's. These experiences form the emotional spine of 'Ghosts In The Park' - grief in motion, memory surfacing unpredictably, \u0026amp; the quiet determination to keep moving forward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcoustic guitar sits at the centre of the record, often captured in raw, first-take performances recorded directly in hotel rooms before being carefully integrated with studio recordings. This tension between fragility \u0026amp; control defines the album's sound. Tracks such as \"Concepcion,\" \"Meet Me On The Downs,\" \u0026amp; the title piece were conceived in specific places - Chile, Hamburg, Oberhausen - each location leaving a subtle imprint on the music. Parks, harbours, \u0026amp; anonymous rooms become recurring settings where past \u0026amp; present coexist, intersected by fleeting moments of clarity amongst the disorder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerformed almost entirely by Soord himself, with bass contributions from Jon Sykes on \"Kept Me Thinking,\" the album was recorded using a combination of hotel-room captures \u0026amp; studio sessions, preserving the immediacy of its origins. Mastered by Steve Kitch, 'Ghosts In The Park' stands as a stark, reflective \u0026amp; evolutionary companion piece to Soord's acclaimed previous solo work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis CD edition of 'Ghosts In The Park' is presented in a 4-panel digipack \u0026amp; includes a 16-page printed booklet with lyrics \u0026amp; original photography from Bruce Soord's childhood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLP Indie Exclusive Cream White LP Tracks: Concepcion ( 01:25 ) \/ Pillars ( 03:10 ) \/ Meet Me On The Downs ( 03:05 ) \/ Kept Me Thinking ( 06:34 ) \/ Day Of Wrath ( 04:21 ) \/ Our Predicament ( 03:43 ) \/ Stared Down ( 04:33 ) \/ You Made A Promise ( 02:56 ) \/ Ghosts In The Park ( 12:52 )\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"KSCOPE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46755084107932,"sku":"KSCOPE1316","price":25.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/2_8c471217-fcf7-4c2d-9972-7f1a7b3c8b2a.webp?v=1777306840","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/bruce-soord-ghosts-in-the-park-indie-exclusive-cream-white-lp","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
