The masterful, earthy and gritty Yorkshire man Stephen Fretwell continues to show the potency of his stripped-down acoustic base, that has dominated this year's second album ‘Man On The Roof’.
His slow and mournful piano touch slides alongside a meandering blues acoustic element, building into a soulful/blues lament. An aching heart is not only displayed, but it is framed too.
Fretwell’s vocals turn into almost into a cry-out and feeling starts to dominate his song-writing. The UK has an earnest, honest and sincere musician to proudly call their own.
