Hamilton Leithauser - Black HoursRibbon Music is proud to present 'Black Hours', the debut solo album from Hamilton Leithauser. Inaugurating a new chapter in an already remarkable career from The Walkmen front man, the album brings Leithauser full circle and then some, from lonely midwinter piano and vocals sessions, to a loud, live Rock n Roll group and back again. Featuring Leithauser with collaborators including Rostam Batmanglij (Vampire Weekend), Paul Maroon (The Walkmen),

which was later reprised to close the set - to songs such as ‰Û÷Caught In Midstream‰۪ and ‰Û÷The Devil‰۪s in League With You

Syl Johnson has forged a career in both blues and soul

With ’This (Is What I Wanted To Tell You)’ Lambchop continue to establish themselves as forerunners and innovators of what was once called Alt Country

The Expressions

The band's exciting return saw the much lauded "The Turning of Our Bones"  single achieve Record of the Week on Jo Whiley's BBC Radio 2 show and hit the B-list at BB6Music

releasing revered solo albums ranking high on in-the-know end of year lists

From the multi-tracked wonderful opener Flume to the choral throb of Lump Sum via the minimal hum

more cosmo than country with a theme of timeless love

flouting ‘commercial’ concerns in our streamingly short-attention-span era – and perhaps implicitly calling for a politics of slow consumption

We will not be sure of the future
