We spoke to him about the concept behind his first full length record, and the deeper story behind it’s recording. “The album was kind of a document of my learning to sing and write acoustic music. I only started singing just before turning 24, after much turmoil and heartache. That kind of became it’s birth place. The pathos in the album came from a huge depression i was going through at the time. I had to have an outlet to put things and quell a spiraling demonstrative lament. These songs became that outlet. A coping mechanism: Not in that writing them occluded the memory, but having people respond to them at open mics and such gave me a sense that something good could at least be gleamed.” Though the songs on ‘Raise Our Sunken Ship’ clearly comes from a fairly dark place, it feels like a strangely positive record at heart – full of redemption and bleakly positive hope, and It covers the length and breadth of Adam’s solo career thus far. “The song ‘Raise Our Sunken Ship’ was the first ever recording of me singing, and the version on the album is that very version. I had redone it a year later, but then opted for the older one.” The album’s music, it’s artwork and even it’s release date are all tied to the title of the record and it’s lead track. “It’s bound to the sentiment of those who died on the Lusitania (Hence ‘Raise Our Sunken Ship’). I’m not a strong believer in fate, but I am a stronger observer in others tarriance to it, and with that, Raise our Sunken ship became a kind of figurehead for the album. It even got it’s physical release on the anniversary of the sinking of the Lusitania. It set the tone for my songwriting thereafter.” Though this is a very personal record, don’t expect to look straight in to Adam’s psyche. “I don’t really like singing directly about myself. There’s a whole vanity with that that I get really uncomfortable about. I dabble in the direct from time to time, but only when metaphor would’ve cheapened sentiment” Recorded above a strip club in the consumerised heart of Leicester, The record draws from it’s surroundings in indirect ways. “Aside from the Cello and Violin, the album is pretty much just me playing in my bedroom. It’s a horribly arduious environment to record in at times, but it does take away the impetus of calander and mishap. If somethings wrong it’s my fault, so I just stop being a dick and do it again. This means things can stretch out and it’s hard to finish from time to time. The environment inevitably informs the song though. You can hear trucks loading, phones going off and all sorts if you listen carefully. It’s not ideal, but it’s part of the aesthetic.
