DOM BROWN
SELF-RELEASED
IN MY BONES
★★★★
Freed from his day job touring as Andy Taylor’s replacement in Duran Duran, Dom Brown spent lockdown completing his fourth solo album. Unsurprisingly it’s full of guitars: he rocks hard on the eastern-tinged Mercury Ascending, employs dobros on Ripples In The Water and strums an acoustic on the piano-led Whisper To The Wise. His voice, meanwhile, wails like Soundgarden’s Chris Cornell’s on the grungy title track and slowly surging power ballad Where You Gonna Run To, though Leap Of Faith will have you dusting off Marillion’s Lavender.
