Bruce Soord - Luminescence (2023) LP

The Pineapple Thief frontman Bruce Soord has announced that he will release a brand new solo album, Luminescence, through Kscope Records on Septmebr 22.

The album, Soord's third solo release, has been inspired by the idea of finding inner peace, especially the difficulty of living in the metropolis of the modern world. The album is preceded by a new single, Dear Life. You can watch the touching video for the gentle, reflective single below.

“Dear Life, which opens the record, doesn’t need much explaining," says Soord. "Don’t wish that it will all be over, in the sweetest blink of an eye. We are always told to not let life pass us by, but it’s easier said than done. And before you know it, it’s done! As my life in particular starts to age, it was an easy subject to relate to. It’s actually sung from the perspective of an elderly parent, on their death bed, to their child.”
