Nick Wheeldon’s Demon Hosts
Gift LP


ENG

After a highly acclaimed debut solo album in 2021, 'Communication Problems' Nick Wheeldon, the Parisian from Sheffield, returns with a second LP 'Gift'.

Over the past 10 years, Nick Wheeldon has recorded nearly 20 albums with countless bands (The Jesus Loves Heroin Band, Os Noctàmbulos, The Necessary Separations,39th the Nortons, Nick & Alizon, Sex Sux, Nick Drunken Broken Arms & His False
Ninga Dylan Cobb, Dômo Kômo etc.), each of them offering him a new opportunity to refine his Gene Clark and Alex Chilton inspired sound - a sound that is both majestic and fragile, delicate and raw.

His first solo album was recorded in his mates'bedrooms'. 'Gift' takes the creative process a step further. The idea of a collective painting where the form and format of the song would never be the same twice. Gift was recorded entirely live on a Tascam 388, 8-track, in a 10-hour session in February 2021 at Studio Claudio.

The band, Demon Hosts, had never played together before this album and had only four three-hour rehearsals to learn and arrange the songs. The time restriction became an asset in the creative
process. The Demon Hosts have captured a moment, an acoustic photograph. 'Gift' is about the fragility of love. What was once medicine can become poison if taken for granted.

The Demon Hosts; Danny Kendrick (Stratocastors) - drums and backing vocals, Marius Atherton (Stratocastors) - bass, Paul Rannaud (Volage) - lead guitar and backing vocals and Sebastien Adam (The Bewitched Hands) - piano, organ, acoustic guitar, lead guitar
on 'Saint Marie' and backing vocals. Under the careful ear of Vincent Hivert (producer and 6th member of the band), the Demon Hosts add amazing colour, shape, confidence and experience to what is surely Nick Wheeldon's finest collection of songs.
