Otherness

Description

‘Otherness’ is Ferris & Sylvester’s second studio album, available on double 12’’ vinyl. It was written across a time of big change and is a tapestry of their life together. The duo explains, ‘Otherness is defined as being or feeling different in appearance or character from what is familiar, expected, or generally accepted. At times of big change, we often feel detached, alienated and isolated from normality. Ironically, this feeling of otherness is one we all share and experience, orbiting on our own planets’. Sonically, the album ranges across a spectrum of psychedelic folk, blues, rock and soul - yet the songs are connected by the duo’s stark and vivid storytelling. Recorded at the pair’s studio with production side-kick Michael Rendall, and released through their own label Archtop Records, Ferris & Sylvester continue to ‘build their own world’ (Clash Magazine).
