Turn The Car Around

Written and recorded by Coombes in his gloriously ramshackle Oxfordshire outhouse Studio, he has emerged with the best work of his illustrious career.

It's an album that both taps into the sonic palettes and lyrical themes of its predecessors and marks the third and final part of a trilogy of records alongside 2015's Mercury and Ivor Novello nominated sophomore album Matador and 2018's World's Strongest Man. At the same time it carves a bold new way forward for one of the UK's most gifted and cherished singer-songwriters.

'Turn The Car Around' features additional instrumentation from members of Gaz's live band, Garo Nahoulakian, Nick Fowler and Piney Gir. The album also sees Coombes reuniting with his live band's vocal trio 'The Roxys' to create a rich and nuanced sonic tapestry.

Cameo performances appear courtesy of Willie J Healey and Ride's Loz Colbert, and Coombes shares co- production duties with long-term collaborator Ian Davenport. As he celebrates 10 years of his lauded solo career since the release of his debut 'Here Come the Bombs', and riding a crest of the Supergrass reunion, the announcement of 'Turn The Car Around' solidifies Coombes status as one of the UK's most interesting, enduring and effortlessly classy artists.
