The NEW Album by David Gray -Mutineers- {Giveaway Winner Announced}

I love to discover new music. While David Gray is most definitely not a new musician- on June 17 he just released his tenth studio album Mutineers, he’s new to me. 
I had never heard of him before, but once I listened to his new tracks I knew instantly he’d be a top musician on my play list from now on. Often, the singer songwriter sound I heard from David Gray is my preferred genre of music. I like clean, lyrical, and usually predominately acoustic music. The Mutineers album fits this bill perfectly. It works perfectly as soft background music while I’m working or turned up while driving. It’s hard for me to pick a favorite track on this album, but I really like the mellow acoustic tones of the title track Mutineers, but a close second is Back in the World. 

The new album Mutineers stretched David’s creative boundaries as he strove to create music that he had never made before.
To coincide with Mutineers, Gray will tour the UK for the first time in three years. The headline tour, commencing at Birmingham’s Symphony Hall on June 23 will include a show at London’s Royal Albert Hall on June 24. The dates follow a run of sold-out US shows across April and May and three sold-out intimate shows earlier this year at Westminster’s Emmanuel Centre.

Recorded in Church Studios, London and produced by Andy Barlow (Lamb), whose brief was to not let Gray “make the same record I’ve made before.” The result is an album that seems to fizz with the joy of its own assembly and finds Gray steering into unfamiliar territory while cultivating a pugnacious but respectful relationship with his own history. “I know I’ve done something here that has an authority that is inspiring me and I don’t have to worry about my past or any of that. The lovely thing about this is we’ve had the time to experiment, and it’s been wonderful,” says Gray.

David Gray captured the world’s attention with his breakout multi-platinum hit White Ladder, the first of three No.1 UK albums, earning him both Brit and Grammy nominations. He has continued to build on this success, with recent albums Draw The Line (2009) and Foundling (2010), both reaching the Billboard Top 10 in the US.

David will begin the second leg of his US tour on August 1.
