Blue Matter proudly presents 1906 by The Desperate Ones, a darkly cinematic collaboration between Eliza Skelton and guitarist Paul Simmons (The Bevis Frond, The Cravats, The Alchemysts, Oddfellow’s Casino). Originally released digitally in 2012 on the Oh Roy! label, this striking album finally receives the full attention it deserves with new LP and CD editions.
Those familiar with Skelton’s stunning The Lookerer will recognise the depth and power of her voice here, woven through Simmons’ atmospheric arrangements. 1906 moves between brooding folk and widescreen rock, its gothic western undertones recalling the shadowy tension of Ennio Morricone. The record features a rich supporting cast of eclectic musicians whose contributions amplify its cinematic mood and emotional gravity—a long-hidden treasure now brought vividly to life.
