It was in 2014 - after sixteen years and nine albums as songwriter-performer-producer with Tracey Thorn in best-selling duo Everything But The Girl, a further ten at the helm of his award-winning electronic label Buzzin Fly, and a radio residency on BBC 6Music - that Watt returned to his roots as a solo singer and songwriter with Hendra, his second album. Arriving thirty-one years after his UK Independent Chart No. 1 debut, it met with wide acclaim at home and abroad for its eloquent lyrics and stripped-back aesthetic; it featured prominently in end-of-year round-ups and pipped Anna Calvi and Blood Orange to win Best Difficult Second Album at the AIM Independent Music Awards 2014. Fever Dream - self-produced at Londons famous RAK Studio 2, and mastered by Bob Ludwig at Gateway Mastering in Maine - takes Hendras sonic template of open-tuned folk-jazz, distorted string-bent rock, and soulful rumination, and adds a fresh grainy intensity. It renews key partnerships with Hendras vaunted guitarist-sideman Bernard Butler and engineer Bruno Ellingham, and sprinkles guest vocal cameos from Bostons dream-folk singer-songwriter Marissa Nadler and Hiss Golden Messengers M.C. Taylor. At the albums heart I just wanted to deepen existing relationships, Watt says. Two years of playing live with Bernard has created a strong bond; the music we make feels spontaneous, ardent, unsentimental. We just went in and did most of it live. Small room, small band. A harder edge. Instruments spilling into each other. The pair are joined by drummer/percussionist and longtime ally Martin Ditcham (Talk Talks Spirit of Eden) and new double bassist Rex Horan (Laura Marlings Once I Was an Eagle / Neil Cowley Trio), who in Watts words brilliantly blurs the boundaries between folk, jazz and rock. I chose the guests to suit, he goes on. Marissas sound is gothic and gauzy but tender and revealing. I pictured her with me on the key closing track [New Year of Grace] - which is a kind of answer to the albums opener [Gradually]. She was in London for twenty-four hours recently. I just doorstepped her on Twitter, and she said yes. Watts non-fiction writing and lyrics have been integral to his recent acclaim. His second memoir Romany and Tom - a portrait of his parents marriage - was longlisted for the prestigious Samuel Johnson Prize in 2014. (His first, 1996s Patient was a New York Times Notable Book of the Year). Novelist Jonathan Coe recently commented Watt is beyond doubt one of the great British singer-songwriters, while The Guardians senior rock critic Alexis Petridis called the writing on Hendra pretty much perfect. Of the new songs, Watt says: I got back from tour with a few notes for a new book, but life got in the way. Close friends were falling apart, my own relationships were being tested. I found I wanted to capture smaller snapshots about how love shifts over time, what endures, how we cope. And they became songs. Some came out darker and more troubled, others softer and more hopeful. And that then became the album structure. First half heavier, second half lighter. A sense of transformation, rather than just a collection of songs. I hadnt done that before. The music I heard in my teens - jazz, folk, art-rock - still cuts the deepest with me, he says. I recently spent over ten years exploring instrumental electronic music and clubland [he was nominated for Outstanding Contribution to Dance Music at DJ Magazine Awards 2009; and was a resident DJ on BBC 6Musics 6Mix from 2010-2014] but have come back to language and that band-in-a-room spontaneity. The raw human voice, unaffected words, pushing simple instruments to their limits - that is now what fascinates me again.
