Jack Garratt - Pillars [Marbled Honey Vinyl]

Multi-award winner Jack Garratt makes his very welcomed return with the announcement of third album Pillars - out August 15th on Cooking Vinyl. Marking his first full-length project in five years, Pillars is vibrant, emotionally-charged and a celebration of love, community, and self-discovery. Pillars is a testament to Jack's evolution as an artist and individual. Following the release of his 2020 album 'Love, Death & Dancing' (#8 in the UK Albums Chart) - which arrived during the pandemic's isolating grip - Jack found himself yearning to reconnect with his fans and his craft. This album is his answer: a bold, unflinching exploration of love in all its forms - romantic, platonic, and self-love - woven into a tapestry of lush melodies, infectious beats, and heartfelt storytelling.

Fully self-produced and self-mixed by Jack, the album was recorded in his North London studio and features one collaboration with producer Johan Hugo (Self Esteem, Mumford & Sons). Pillars is a masterclass in artistic integrity and Garratt's meticulous attention to detail - whether re-recording a single lyric or layering live instrumentation - reflects his unwavering commitment to his craft.

Since winning the Brits' Critics' Choice Award and the BBC Sound Of poll in 2016, Jack Garratt has released two critically acclaimed albums, Phase (2016, UK #3 Album) and Love, Death & Dancing (2020, UK #8 Album). Known for electrifying live performances and a genre-defying sound, Jack continues to push boundaries with his deeply personal and sonically adventurous music, with Pillars being no exception.

''This is the most authentic record I've made yet,'' Garratt says. ''I've gone through years of confusion and self-discovery to get here.

With Pillars, Jack Garratt not only reaffirms his place as one of the UK's most innovative musicians but also extends an open hand to listeners. ''I want this album to be an invitation - a celebration where everyone is welcome.'' Jack concludes. ''No guest list, no barriers. Just come in, the water's fine.''
