MONEY will be releasing their debut album ‘The Shadow of Heaven’ on 26th August via Bella Union Records and are about to embark on a UK tour to support the release. Recorded in London through the deep, dark winter of 2012/13, it’s an ethereal, transcendent record that’s notable for its musical and intellectual ambition.
MONEY are Jamie Lee, Charlie Cocksedge, Billy Byron and Scott Beaman. Having formed in Manchester amidst a prolific underground milieu, they soon came to embody the passion, creativity and optimism of a new generation of artists and musicians. MONEY played shows in esoteric venues such as Salford’s Sacred Trinity Church and ‘the Bunker’.
The album consists of ten songs that range from stripped-back piano ballads such as ‘Goodnight London’ and ‘The Cruelty of Godliness’ to the more epic ‘Hold Me Forever’ and ‘Bluebell Fields’.
MONEY will be embarking on their first ever UK tour week and have added many festival appearances. Upcoming UK live info below:
