Our favourite Sax toting, storytelling poet is back - after a few months in the states and an absolutely stunning record (album of the year on BBC R6 no less)Gus Fairbairn, aka AlabasterDePlume, is an eccentric spirit, saxophanist, songwriter, poet, singer and creative force with a pocketful of phrases.
A master at holding court with musicians and an audience, Alabaster Deplume released GOLD in late 2022 that was met with huge praise - "A defiantly original album with rollicking incantations, that tap into a dreamlike state of consciousness, wherein musicians bring a stew of instruments – flickering double bass, spitting sax, downy snare – to an impressive simmer beneath"
“Illuminating! Thought provoking but full of fun, DePlume’s ability to dig deep has turned up a genuine treasure” - MOJO ★★★★
"One of the year’s most confronting albums didn’t deal in noise or aggression, but deeply insistent compassion" - The Guardian
"DePlume’s comforting reassurance feels like a secular blessing, a private rallying point away from life’s greedy clamor" - Pitchfork
