Andy Crofts makes his solo debut with Melody Boy, an album written and recorded in a tiny beach hut studio on England's coast. Best known for his work with Paul Weller and The Moons, Crofts puts melody at the heart of every song, drawing on a lifelong love of classic songwriting rather than passing trends. Warm analogue production and memorable hooks give the album an effortless, timeless feel, while lead single Blue hints at a set that grows stronger with every listen. Melody Boy is a confident, understated debut that lets the songs do the talking.
