James Yorkston's Third Studio Album on Double LP!
Confounding genre expectations as ever, The Year of the Leopard sees James Yorkston write a truly beautiful album, allowing his sparse instrumentation to be produced by former Talk Talk member Paul Webb, giving the album a warm-but-not-too-cosy feel.
The album is a brittle, introspective affair, but it's brimming with perfectly timed moments of emotional release, beautiful atmosphere courtesy of Webb's masterful oversight, expert folk playing, and Yorkston's rich voice, poetic delivery, and unerring songwriting. It's simultaneously cool yet soul-revealing, sparse yet full, experimental yet grounded, and mournful yet uplifting. The Year of the Leopard is James Yorkston at his very best.
