SAINT ETIENNE - Home Counties (Sealed) (CD)

Brand new album! It is the first album from Saint Etienne since 2012's 'Words and Music by Saint Etienne.' The album is supposedly inspired at least in part by Brexit, and will be titled 'Home Counties,' a reference to Pete Wiggs, Sarah Cracknell and Stanley’s origins in Chelmsford, Reigate and Horsham respectively. The album was produced by Shawn Lee of Young Gun Silver Fox, with support from Augustus (Kero Kero Bonito), Carwyn Ellis (Colorama, Edwyn Collins), Robin Bennett (The Dreaming Spires), Richard X (Girls On Top / Black Melody) and long-time collaborator Gerard Johnson (Denim, Yes). It was recorded in central London. Sarah, Bob and Pete commuted to the studio every day for six weeks.
