Barry Adamson

written and recorded at the time Adamson was writing his memoir ‘Up Above the City, Down Beneath the Stars’, this ep is now released on vinyl for the first time.

The record ended up becoming an intrinsic part of the book writing process with Barry explaining, “The book is the past, the record is the past present. I needed to write it to get through the book, to stay present.” Sitting amongst Barry’s diverse catalogue, Steal Away EP presents a refreshing vibrancy and western-like feel that further demonstrates Adamson’s multifaceted ability in songwriting. “The EP plays with '60s pop sounds, and has a sweeping, swaggering, orchestral feel not unlike classic Scott Walker.” - Brooklyn Vegan “Without a doubt, regardless of preferential musical genres, Barry Adamson delivers an eloquent display of songwriting just within four songs.” - Ghettoblaster
