about

New studio album Understudy finds Boo in reflective mood with a fatalistic yet joyful narrative running throughout the lyrics , songs about these strange times individually and globally. Some of his finest to date.

About the album Boo says...

We’ve all been going through the strangest time. This album was written in my Glasgow flat. I was unable to visit my dad in his care home. But we would talk every day. I turned 60 (I’m 25 in real life). I lost dad. I fell in love with my home life. I rediscovered the joy of writing all the time. I made new remote friends. This album is reflection of this strange time. It is a record.


Written in Glasgow - recorded with long time collaborator Chris Pepper in East Anglia
