Birthdays, Dear and Romantic Works back on vinyl due to popular demand.

Pianist, vocalist and heartbreaker Keaton Henson has announced that all three of his acclaimed and hugely popular full length LPs are to be repressed on vinyl. Henson’s 2011 debut Dear, reissued on vinyl by The Vinyl Factory earlier this year with a hand-signed print, will be repressed featuring three bonus songs not available on the original album.

Cementing his reputation at the vanguard of a new generation of songwriters in the Jeff Buckley and Elliott Smith vein, Henson’s 2013 follow up Birthdays is also slated for repress, featuring three bonus tracks ‘Milk Teeth’, ‘If I Don’t Have To’ and ‘On the News’, which you can listen to below.

The series is completed by Henson’s stripped down instrumental suite Romantic Works, also released by The Vinyl Factory with a signed print in 2014. The repress will include the original bonus track ‘La Naissance’ and a remix by producer and composer Ulrich Schnauss.

All three represses are available now and are pressed on 180gram vinyl featuring artwork by Henson himself.

Watch Keaton Henson’s stunning performance of ‘Party Song’ from his debut album Dear.

Ever since its official release in 2012 which saw all 1000 copies fly off the shelf, Keaton fans have continuously demanded a vinyl re-release of his cult heartbreak album Dear. The day has finally arrived – and could the timing be any better with Valentine’s Day just around the corner?

To mark the release, we invited Keaton to our Brewer Street Car Park Space for a secret gig. Featuring Harry Cameron-Penny on bass clarinet and recorded using Shure KSM141 microphones, watch his mesmerising and achingly beautiful performance of ‘Party Song’ in the film above.

Released by The Vinyl Factory, the Dear reissue features all the tracks from the original album plus three ‘re-produced’ bonus tracks. The edition comes housed in a bespoke matt sleeve with spot UV debossed artwork and an exclusive fine art print by Keaton himself, individually hand numbered and signed.

Barrowlands Live Deluxe Edition + Signed Setlist

In May 2014, three decades after the Jesus and Mary Chain first appeared on the scene in an explosion of noise, leather and attitude, it was announced that the Mary Chain, one of the most turbulent groups in pop history, would be performing their classic debut album Psychocandy live in its entirety for the first time to celebrate its thirtieth anniversary. Psychocandy. Live. Barrowlands. Due to the increased demand, our manufacturers were not able to fulfil all the quantities on red vinyl. But there will be 340 copies available in red from selected stores in the UK only. The red copies will be stickered. Exclusive to the first 300 fans to preorder the boxset from the official Jesus & Mary Chain store , the boxset will come with a A4 setlist poster signed by the band. Strictly limited to first 300 orders worldwide.

By November 2014, the first Psychocandy shows were underway. They were both deafening and blinding, sound and light practically being used as weapons against the mesmerised crowd, and as the smoke unfurled and great tides of feedback rose and crashed everyone present surrendered to it all over again.

This Deluxe package is a true collector’s item chronicling the bands homecoming gig at Glasgow’s legendary Barrowlands Ballroom, celebrating the tour that has propelled the band across the globe and back into the hearts and minds of faithful worldwide.
Within the 40-page hardback book package you’ll find a strictly limited edition LP of the Pyschocandy performance cut to 180-gram heavyweight black vinyl by engineer Noel Summerville (MBV / Pistols) as well as the 7 track prelude set containing key singles and fan favourites including ‘April Skies’, ‘Head On’ and ‘the monstrous ‘Reverence’ cut to a bespoke 10” entirely exclusive to the package. Also included is a CD of the entire performance, a candid interview with Brothers Jim & William Reid as well as Alan McGee about the Anniversary Tour and the future, and pages of unseen photography from behind the scenes.

The Jesus and Mary Chain‘s iconic Psychocandy celebrated its 30th anniversary this year. In its honor, the band embarked on a short run of UK shows at which they performed the album in full. The first of these dates took place last November at the Barrowlands Ballroom in Glasgow, and marked the band’s first live appearance since 2008. Now, the Jesus and Mary Chain continue their anniversary celebration with Live At Barrowlands, a 10” + LP + CD deluxe package featuring the concert in its entirety, along with a book, behind-the-scenes footage, interviews, and more. It arrives July 31 via Demon Records, with a CD-only version planned for later this year.

In addition to the live LP, Live at Barrowlands comes packaged with a 40-page hardback book, as well as a CD loaded with the JAMC’s set, plus extra content (interviews, behind-the-scenes photos). The 10”, meanwhile, features an assortment of tracks (“April Skies”, “Head On”, “Reverence” engineered by legendary engineer Noel Summerville (My Bloody Valentine, The White Stripes).
