Second single – Between Two Points – released from David Gilmour’s Luck and Strange

Released today is the second single from David Gilmour’s forthcoming album, Luck And Strange, which is released on September 6th – full details here (https://www.brain-damage.co.uk/latest/david-gilmour-luck-and-strange-new-album-announced.html). The song is Between Two Points, which is a cover of a track by the Montgolfier Brothers from their 1999 debut album Seventeen Stars, and features David’s daughter Romany on vocals and harp. David: “I’ve had that song on my playlist since it was released. More recently I mentioned it to one or two people: I assumed that it had been a hit, but no one knew it. I asked Romany to give it a go”. During the live streams that David and family, as the Von Trappeds, performed to a global audience during the lockdowns of 2020 and 2021, Romany had sung and played the harp, and David found that their voices mixed in a way that only a family member could. Around that time, David and Romany collaborated on the song Yes, I Have Ghosts, which appears on the CD Blu-Ray versions of Luck and Strange. “I realised that Romany has exactly the right sort of vulnerability and youth for the song. In fact, she was halfway through an essay with a train to catch when we asked her: “OK, I’ll sing it once, put the mic on” and that, said David, is 90 percent of the finished vocal. Mark Tranmer of The Montgolfier Brothers is greatly enamoured with this new version. “David and Romany’s version of our song is a great arrangement and production. Like all the best covers, it diverges from the original but keeps the spirit. Romany’s vocal phrasing of Roger Quigley’s words and the harp playing are both truly beautiful. David Gilmour’s distinctive guitar adds a whole new dimension. I still find it incredible that David and Polly chose to cover our song from all the songs out there.” The video for Between Two Points was shot on location in London and Manchester, with David on guitars and featuring Romany Gilmour on vocals and harp. Gavin Elder who directed the clip said: “Romany performs this song with an extraordinary level of fragility, vulnerability and understated control. There’s a subtle, yet deep emotional rapport between David and Romany, captured with hand held cameras, enhancing the tension within the video.” A video has been produced to explain the background to it, which you can watch here: Coming at 5pm UK time today is the full video for the song, and if you are reading this before then, you can join the premiere here, or if after 5pm, watch the video in full whenever you want:

David Gilmour announces string of London Royal Albert Hall gigs – only UK concerts

JUST ANNOUNCED: David Gilmour is doing six nights at London’s Royal Albert Hall in October 2024, to coincide with the release of his new album Luck and Strange, which comes out on September 6th (https://www.brain-damage.co.uk/latest/david-gilmour-luck-and-strange-new-album-announced.html). Gilmour and his band will be playing the legendary venue on October 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, 14th and 15th, and tickets go on sale next week (full details below). In the recent Uncut interview (https://www.brain-damage.co.uk/latest/exclusive-david-gilmour-interview-in-new-uncut-magazine.html) Gilmour talks about the mechanics of sorting out the set list for the tour, which should include the new album, but also selected Pink Floyd songs from over the years. The band is yet to be announced but he notes that “I thought we’d get people who are genuinely creative and give them a little more space. That’s the plan. So we’re going to have some of the younger guys alongside Guy [Pratt] and the Webb Sisters, who sang with Leonard Cohen on his last tours”. It is worth noting that the six shows at London’s Royal Albert Hall are the entirety of his UK performances this time around. We suspect there could be dates in other countries announced in due course. Tickets for these concerts go on sale in two stages. Fans in the UK/Ireland pre-ordering Luck and Strange from the official David Gilmour UK Album Store (https://davidgilmour.com/rah) will get first access to tickets, via an exclusive ticket pre-sale on Thursday 9th May through Ticketmaster UK (https://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/david-gilmour-tickets/artist/769001). If you have, or intend to, order from elsewhere, there IS, however, a “No purchase necessary” option you can select at David’s store to get the pre-sale code without having to cancel your existing order. The window to qualify for the pre-sale ends at 3pm UK on Wednesday, May 8th, with all existing pre-orders from the official David Gilmour UK Album Store also eligible. Pre-sale codes will be sent out later that day. Tickets will then go on general sale at 10am UK on Friday, May 10th, through this link at Ticketmaster UK (https://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/david-gilmour-tickets/artist/769001). We are sure that demand will be high for these special concerts.
