Radiohead’s Philip Selway has announced plans to release his debut solo album on Bella Union records. To be called Familial, it’ll be released on 30th August and see’s Selway craft a singer-songwriter album rather than just a “drummer” side-project.
The idea of a solo album was apparently seeded when Selway played on Neil Finn’s solo project 7 Worlds Collide back in 2001. During the sessions for Familial, Selway invited Germano, Steinberg, Wilco drummer Glenn Kotche and multi-instrumentalist Patrick Sansone to come and make the record with him. All who were also involved in 7 Worlds.
Anyway… actually looking forward to this one muchly…
