UK renowed Progressive Rock artist Tim Bowness published the official video for the track “Rock Hudson” taken from upcoming new album “Powder Dry” due for release on August 16, 2024 on Kscope. Watch the video through the YouTube player below:
The first single from “Powder Dry” is the propulsive “Rock Hudson,” a paranoid ode to online discourse. Produced and performed by Tim Bowness and mixed by Steven Wilson, the song is accompanied a vibrant abstract video by Matt Vickerstaff.
Tim says: “Like all of the album Powder Dry, the song resulted from an attempt to capture a fleeting feeling as accurately as I could. This time the mood was dark, and there’s something of the spiky Post-Punk and Electro-Pop music of the early 1980s that captivated me as a teenager in the mix. Joy Division, The Cure, The The etc…“
Featuring 16 pieces over its restless 40-minute duration, Tim Bowness’s eighth studio album “Powder Dry” represents a new beginning on a new label (Kscope).
A collection of acute contrasts, echoed by Carl Glover‘s vibrant artwork, the album was produced, performed and written by Bowness (a first) and mixed by Bowness’ partner in No-Man Steven Wilson, who also acted as Bowness’ sounding board during the mixing process.
“I’ve had the pleasure to work on most of Tim’s solo albums, and for me this is the best and most creative of them all, partly because this time it’s truly a ‘solo’ album, showcasing not only his unique vocals, but also his distinctive approach to production and performance. It’s totally Tim!” – Steven Wilson
