As the frontman of epic British drone-pop band The Verve, Richard Ashcroft proved himself the spiritual descendant of rock & roll icons like Mick Jagger and Jim Morrison – rivetingly charismatic, menacingly serpentine, and possessed of an almost shamanic intensity, he embraced and articulated the anthemic fervour of rock music with a power and eloquence unparalleled by any of his contemporaries.
He’s now set to release his new album, Natural Rebel, on his own label, RPA. About the album, he said: “With experience comes knowledge and for me this is my strongest set of songs to date. All my favourite sounds distilled into something that will hopefully give my fans lasting pleasure. It is for them. Music is power.”
Note: the LP version is available on indies-only orange vinyl.
We’re offering Natural Rebel at special pre-sale prices, which won’t be available after release. Click here for more details and to order your copy.
