Knats – A Great Day In Newcastle CD

Description

Release Date: 01/05/26

CD

A Great Day in Newcastle is a musical documentation of the North East working-class experience. Through a storytelling approach with new member and poet Cooper Robson, the record explores darker themes such as substance abuse, crime and toxic masculinity within a Geordie jazz noir soundscape, while retaining a playful Northern optimism. With Cooper’s poetry combined with Stan’s evolving composition, King’s orchestration and groove-led arrangements, and Ferg’s melodic sensibility, the record shows progression while returning to rock roots. Supported by producer Geordie Greep. Format details: 180g black vinyl in a single sleeve with OBI strip; mini gatefold-style CD sleeve with OBI strip. Tracklist: 7 Bridges to Burn; Gainsborough Grove; Wor Jackie (05:41); Messy-In; Azure Blues; Bigg Market Scrappa; Carpet Doctor; Never Gonna Be a Boxer; Farewell Johnny Miner.
