Paraorchestra, Brett Anderson & Charles Hazlewood

The Suede man teamed up with Charles Hazlewood and the Paraorchestra for this suite of indie-rock re-dos, lifting classic tracks into rousing orchestral works or reducing them down into spectral, skeletal pieces - whichever their approach, it's teeming with gravitas and emotional heft.

'Death Songbook' is an exquisite and unique collaboration between Suede’s Brett Anderson, Charles Hazlewood and Paraorchestra, featuring special guests Nadine Shah and Gwenno. The album features delicate new interpretations of iconic songs by the likes of Echo & The Bunnymen, Suede, Depeche Mode, Mercury Rev and Japan tackling themes of death, the death of love, anxiety, loss and transcendence. Paraorchestra is the world's first large-scale virtuoso ensemble of professional disabled and non-disabled musicians.
