ANTI-PRESS RELEASE - “FREE FAIRHURST - KING OF SPRING”

JOHN FAIRHURST’S ACCLAIMED DEBUT ALBUM WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE FREE ON THE FIRST DAY OF SPRING

21st March, the traditional beginning of Spring, will this year feature a unique opportunity to procure John Fairhurst’s highly praised debut album Joys of Spring for absolutely nothing.

“This is an unbridled, joyous explosion of simple textures, thrilling musicianship and handsome melodies.”
(Chris Long, BBC Radio Manchester)

When Joys was first released in 2008 critics and audiences alike were stunned by its sheer majesty - the common consensus was that it signaled the auspicious arrival of a formidable new talent.

Since its humble beginnings in a Wigan shed the album has reached audiences all over the world and accompanied its creator on tours that have included North America, Australia, continental Europe and the Far East, as well as nearly every music festival imaginable (including Glastonbury and Texas’ prestigious SXSW).

Now, we are pleased to announce that John is giving this infamous LP away free of charge to fans old and new. The national press don’t know about this one, the publicity is limited to informing individuals who have supported the independent music scene and followed the progress of artists affiliated with Debt Records and like-minded progressive labels.

How do you get it?

Avoid the usual retailers, head straight to John’s personal shop (which will be linked in to www.debtrecords.net/shop on the day of the giveaway) and download your copy in whatever format best suits you.

Offer is limited to Sunday 21st March.

Details of John Fairhurst’s follow up release will be announced in due course.
