Collodion
Collodion is the follow-up to Andrew Rumseyâs 2023 solo debut Evensongs, which won widespread praise (from Mark Radcliffe on the BBC Radio 2 Folk Show, among others) as an unexpected gem of pastoral psych-folk. âAn enchanting, enthralling album â, according to Shindig! magazine. Next came Andrewâs involvement with the Ghostwriter collective, whose September 2024 release on the Subexotic label Tremulant was described by Folking.com as âhypnotically beautiful âand championed by author Sir Ian Rankin as a âunique and spiritually enthralling listen ⊠with a touch of Bright Phoebusâ.
Collodion was (like its predecessor) recorded on a single day, in the historic setting of Rushall Church in Wiltshire, by RealWorld Studios âchief engineer Katie May. It features eight songs and a poem, with Andrew being joined by longtime collaborator David Perry on guitar and organ, plus jazz musician Cameron Saint on double bass. Collodion is a chemical used to develop images in early âtintype âphotography: these short songs, likewise, capture fleeting moods and moments before they fade.
