After a few teases, Bristol's Rob Bravery has finally made his full-length debut with Esque.
With odes to his mother ("Marvel At The Man"), his wife ("Remy"), and life in a party house ("Cleaning Up"), Esque is as expansive lyrically as it is musically. As the artist himself recently said to Clash, Esque is an album that "flit[s] back and forth between dark, light, electro ambience and acoustic stuff."
