Across four decades Ben Watt has maintained a committed forward-looking course, from the ardent echo-drenched folk of his early solo work with Robert Wyatt, through seventeen years as musical mainspring and co-lyricist in the best-selling Everything But the Girl with Tracey Thorn – and ten at the helm of his smart electronic label Buzzin’ Fly – to his more recent moving non-fiction and mid-life solo albums, the award-winning ‘Hendra’ (2014) and ‘Fever Dream’ (2016). ‘Storm Damage’ is Watt’s fourth solo LP. Sonically adventurous, lyrically detailed and engaged, the album – written and produced by Watt himself – is a personal journey through anxiety and change cut through with an insistent defiance.
