Martin Carr, best known as the guitarist and primary songwriter behind the beloved British band The Boo Radleys, steps into the spotlight under his own name with The Breaks, his second solo album released in 2014 on Tapete Records. The record showcases Carr's gift for crafting straightforward, hook-driven pop songs, while also exploring darker and more acoustic territory throughout the tracklist.
The Breaks highlights the range of Carr's songwriting, balancing uptempo, immediately gratifying tracks like "The Santa Fe Skyway" and "St. Peter in Chains" with quieter, more introspective moments that allow his melodic sensibilities to shine in a stripped-back setting. Fans of classic British pop and rock songwriting will find plenty to appreciate in this confident and varied collection from one of the genre's most underrated talents.
