Luck and Strange Vinyl

Standard Vinyl Edition.

David Gilmour’s new album, Luck and Strange, was recorded over five months in Brighton and London and is Gilmour’s first new album in nine years.

The album was produced by David and Charlie Andrew, best known for his work with ALT-J and Marika Hackman, with lyrics mostly written by Polly Samson, Gilmour’s co-writer for the past thirty years. The album includes eight new tracks and a beautiful cover of The Montgolfier Brothers’ "Between Two Points," featuring Romany Gilmour, who sings and plays the harp and contributes backing vocals throughout the album.

Musicians contributing to the album include Guy Pratt and Tom Herbert on bass, Adam Betts, Steve Gadd and Steve DiStanislao on drums, Rob Gentry and Roger Eno on keyboards, with string and choral arrangements by Will Gardner. The title track also features the late Pink Floyd keyboardist, Richard Wright, recorded in 2007 during a 'Barn Jam' at David’s home.

The album's cover image, photographed and designed by renowned artist Anton Corbijn, is inspired by lyrics written by Charlie Gilmour for the album's final song, "Scattered."
