The Fat Angel Sings

Taken from the Eaves EP released Nov 10th (USA 27th Oct) Joseph Lyons aka Eaves is in his early 20s and based in Leeds. His debut EP titled “As Old As The Grave” comes out November 10 on Heavenly Recordings. For a young artist, his music is devastatingly mature, dealing with heartbreaking subject matter and delivered with poise. “Alone In My Mind” is a Nick Drake-esque song based on the true story of Richard Mannington Bowes, a man who tried to extinguish a fire outside his shop and was attacked and killed by a 17-year-old kid. “As Old As The Grave” touches on Eaves’ dealings with alcoholism. The topics may be ugly, but the songwriting is gorgeous for such a young talent.
