Singer-songwriter David Gray released a double-album last month entitled, Foundling. Just over a year after releasing his last full-length album, Foundling includes a disc of new material and a disc of previously unreleased songs. In usual Gray style, the album is stunning in its composition and execution; Gray’s strong and emotionally-charged vocals are enough to turn any tune into something spectacular. Album opened “Open the Wine” is a catchy, folk tune which sets the tone for the album: musically rich. The quiet and somber “Forgetting” is a thoughtful song without being instrumentally stripped down to just piano or guitar.  Gray’s voice is tinkered with a bit in “In God’s Name” to give an effect of someone talking on a phone (sort of). The piano-accompanied “A New Day at Midnight” is stripped down, but Gray’s vocals are full and bright enough to make the song feel not-so-empty.

Gray is currently on tour in the US. For upcoming dates, click HERE.

Here’s “A Moment Changes Everything”, the first single off of David Gray’s Foundling.
