What do you do when you are no longer new, the minds have been made up, and the die cast? Well, maybe you should just be yourself...? Wide-Eyed Nowhere is Turin Brakes ninth full studio album, a set of new songs emerging 21 years after their seminal debut (which was reissued last year, and flew to the top spot of the Indie Album Chart). Its no easy feat maintaining an optimistic attitude through the turbulence of the years, but the band found their own method down in deepest Tooting to produce this lean, bittersweet collection. The South London 4-Piece comprising Olly Knights, Gale Paridjanian, Rob Allum and Eddie Myer recorded this new set of songs at Twin Palms - Ollys garden studio - over the summer of 2021, choosing to let time infuse into the music and mature in a way it couldnt in a pressurised commercial studio setting.
