"At the moment of his greatest crisis, Friday delivers his best work by far"

"Amazing what you can achieve with a few lights, six elastic bands and Gavin Friday."

"Gavin Friday has always been a favorite artist of mine for his ability to balance these elements, and to merrily juggle the clever, the absurd, the arch and the painfully personal."

Questo fantastico spirito libero della musica internazionale segna i nostri tempi con il suo anti pop di grande fede. La sua voce sa arrivare a toccare le corde più rigide dell'ascoltatore, la sua passionalità sa scaldare le giornate più fredde. Un disco da acquistare assolutamente!
