Sheffield's own Richard Hawley is set to release new album ‘Further’ later this year.
The songwriter's eighth studio album is a break with the past, his first for BMG and his first not to be named after a Sheffield landmark.
Still largely constructed in the Steel City, Richard Hawley was aided by co-producers Colin Elliot and Shez Sheridan.
“I really wanted to challenge myself to try to keep things relatively up-tempo and keep the songs to about three minutes long,” Hawley says openly, “I was asking myself ‘Can you get your message across like a bullet? Can you still do that?’ It’s quite a tough question to ask.”
