Growing up on the music of Idlewild, it was natural that I would mellow and mature into a fan of Roddy Woomble’s solo material. His latest offering ‘The Deluder’ comes this Autumn and Roddy will be on tour across the UK in support.
Roddy Woomble releases ‘The Deluder’ on 1st September 2017. ‘Like Caruso’ was the Scottish songwriter’s last single back in March and now we have the more playful sounds of ‘Jupiter’.
Woomble had the following to say about the upcoming single:
The song actually started out as something I was making up for (and with) my son, who is eight years old and quite interested in astronomy – working on it with my band, who are all adults, it developed and took on a new meaning; the emphasis, and hope we place in mysterious things we don’t fully understand. Constellations, Planets, astrology, the secrets we keep from each other, while still aiming to keep some of the fun, irreverent nature of the original idea, both in the music and lyrics.
‘The Deluder’ can be preordered on www.roddywoomble.net ahead of its 1st September release.
