Best known for his work with Flaming Stars, Earls Of Suave and Gallon Drunk, Max Decharne returns with Veronica's Lake, a superb collection that showcases his unmistakable songwriting and world-weary vocal style. Dark, atmospheric rockers sit comfortably alongside beautifully crafted ballads, with fuzz-drenched guitars, haunting melodies and lyrics that reward repeated listening. Drawing on garage rock, blues, noir and classic rock 'n' roll influences, Decharne creates an album that's rich in character and utterly distinctive. Whether you're already a fan of his previous bands or discovering his solo work for the first time, Veronica's Lake is a compelling LP from one of Britain's most individual musical voices.
