More Info:

Nick Frater’s 11th studio album, “Bivouac,” emerges as a sophisticated pop masterpiece in his prolific discography. Embarking on a thematic journey, it encapsulates the quest for solace in a woodland sanctuary amidst post-industrial Britain. Drawing melodic echoes from Bacharach, Tillbrook, McCartney, and Rundgren, Frater’s songcraft resonates deeply, particularly with devotees of Ram and Wizard a True Star. Across 23 impressive tracks, “Bivouac” adeptly melds power-pop, orchestral-pop, and prog intricacies, serving as a testament to Frater’s creative dedication. Embracing an ambitious collaborative spirit, he unites with melodic-rock luminaries including Roger Joseph Manning Jr. (Beck/Jellyfish), Luke Smith (Ulysses), and Joe Kane (The Poppermost), seamlessly intertwining these talents with authentic Radiophonic tape effects, Mellotron textures, and Pink Floyd’s original Dark Side of the Moon synthesizer.
