Gren Bartley - Magnificent Creatures

Well respected acoustic musician and lyricist, Gren Bartley releases his third album 'Magnificent Creatures' in September 2015 on Fellside Records, alongside a tour taking in major cities including London, Manchester, Birmingham, Newcastle, Bristol & Nottingham. Now touring with a string section, three part harmonies and driving percussion he is creating something truly original in the underground folk scene, if you think you've heard something like it before� then think again. Comparisons to Rufus Wainwright, Elliot Smith and Badly Drawn Boy are sure to arise, but Gren is talented and ambitious enough to make his own mark.Gren is a widely praised and accomplished musician. He has been recording and touring nonstop these past few years, working with an array of talented musicians and producers.

The captivating intro gradually twists into a beautiful symphonic sound. Backing vocals blend with full-bodied instrumentation under the remarkable production values of producer, Gavin Monaghan.
