Renascence

Arthur Black

Presages

WE SAY

Drawing inspiration from the wistful sonic musings of Big Thief, The Cranberries, and Fleetwood Mac, alt-folk newcomer Arthur Black delivers a dark, hauntingly beautiful acoustic-driven ode with ‘Renascence’. Raised off-grid, the Norwich-based artist fostered an appreciation for alternative sounds through their family’s eclectic musical tastes. Following a family tragedy, Black turned to songwriting and guitar as a means of solace, and has since been honing their talent at Access Creative College’s Norwich campus, where they later formed their band. Last year, they performed at several festivals including Reading & Leeds Festival, Latitude, and Beyond The Music. With its late ’90s and early ’00s alternative vibes, the Jack Halsall and Lavar Bullard produced record is stunning introduction to the intricate and raw emotive power of Arthur Black – an artist to keep an eye on.
