Multi-Instrumentalist, Producer & The Pineapple Thief Frontman Bruce Soord Returns With Powerful New Solo Album. Presented On Dark Green Vinyl LP. As founding member & principal songwriter of The Pineapple Thief, Bruce Soord has spent the last decade steadily refining a voice that balances emotional directness with musical restraint. 'Ghosts In The Park', his latest solo album, is his most personal & unguarded work to date: a record shaped by loss, memory, & the quiet spaces that reveal themselves when life continues to move while everything else appears to stop. Written over a two-year period while Soord was touring extensively with The Pineapple Thief, the album emerged in hotel rooms, unfamiliar cities, & moments of enforced solitude. Against this backdrop, Soord was navigating the drawn-out decline & eventual death of his father, alongside the continued progression of his mother's Alzheimer's. These experiences form the emotional spine of 'Ghosts In The Park' - grief in motion, memory surfacing unpredictably, & the quiet determination to keep moving forward. Acoustic guitar sits at the centre of the record, often captured in raw, first-take performances recorded directly in hotel rooms before being carefully integrated with studio recordings. This tension between fragility & control defines the album's sound. Tracks such as "Concepción," "Meet Me On The Downs," & the title piece were conceived in specific places - Chile, Hamburg, Oberhausen - each location leaving a subtle imprint on the music. Parks, harbours, & anonymous rooms become recurring settings where past & present coexist, intersected by fleeting moments of clarity amongst the disorder. Performed almost entirely by Soord himself, with bass contributions from Jon Sykes on "Kept Me Thinking," the album was recorded using a combination of hotel-room captures & studio sessions, preserving the immediacy of it's origins. Mastered by Steve Kitch, 'Ghosts In The Park' stands as a stark, reflective & evolutionary companion piece to Soord's acclaimed previous solo work.
