2024 Brand New Studio Album. Brand New Songs. One of the most lyrical singers and interesting songwriters in the British folk-pop genre. Richard Cromelin, Los Angeles Times. Iain Matthews has been such a prolific creator for so long that hes unsure if How Much Is Enough? is his 53rd or 54thsolo album. Whats clear is that after a 60-year career including fronting seminal folk rock band Fairport Convention and hits on both sides of the Atlantic, hes a man with little to prove but much still to say (even if he does threaten that each new record will be his last!). I just felt that I needed to make one more solo album as a farewell gift, he offered from his longtime home in the Netherlands. But how does a songwriter retire? I honestly dont know how to stop being a songwriter and dont know if I ever will. How Much Is Enough finds Matthews marrying his signature, eloquent folk rock to the sepia-tinted songcraft of Neil Finn, the wide-eyed, wistful wonder of a young David Bowie, and more recent influences including Elliot Smith and Hiss Golden Messenger. Fusing acoustic and electric instrumentation, its a record made by a man who didnt need to make a record, and that purity and authenticity permeates its cultured songcraft and heartfelt lyricism.
