Mother’s Ruin is Oliver’s latest studio project and marks a progression in his musical career.
The album sees a change in direction from Oliver’s recent instrumental releases and draws heavily both from Oliver’s progressive roots and also the experience performing live with his band.
A collection of hard-edged yet melodic songs, the album showcases Oliver’s writing skills but also allows room for the dynamic instrumentation which has become a trademark of Oliver’s work.
With tracks such as ‘Mother’s Ruin’ tackling the emotive issue of the environment and our impact on the planet, and ‘The Agent’ depicting experiences with a fictional music industry low-life, this album covers a host of subjects all within the framework of powerful rhythms and grooves.
Musicians include:
Oliver Wakeman – Piano, Keyboards & Acoustic Guitar
Moon Kinnaird - Vocals
David Mark Pearce – Guitar
Tim Buchanan – Bass Guitar
Dave Wagstaffe – Drums and Percussion
