Jon Boden, former frontman of progressive folk outfit Bellowhead, is back with his new solo album Afterglow. The record is Boden’s first studio release since calling an end to Bellowhead, and follows on from his 2009 solo concept-album Songs From the Floodplain, which lead him to be named as Folk Singer of the Year at the BBC Folk Awards.
Whereas Floodplain largely dealt with the rural setting, Afterglow looks to juxtapose this and immerse the listener within a post-apocalyptic street carnival – a location of decaying buildings, burning oil drums and homemade fireworks, in which Boden tells the story of two lovers trying to find one another.
