July Record of the Month: Stephen Fretwell 'Busy Guy'

An absolute masterclass in simplicity and authenticity. This really is a special album.


After an absence of 13 years Stephen Fretwell returns with his long-awaited third album, Busy Guy. Described by Fretwell as “a song cycle of sorts,” the album examines the seasons of a life, exploring fatherhood, grief and rebirth, with Fretwell’s trademark eloquence and wit. 

Busy Guy was produced by Fretwell’s close friend and Speedy Wunderground label boss, Dan Carey. They recorded the whole thing one hot July afternoon in just two hours.

It is our July Album of the Month and we recommend it very highly indeed.
