Also known as the frontman for Scottish indie band Idlewild, Woomble’s latest singles ‘Like Curuso’ and ‘Jupiter’ have generated much anticipation for the release of his latest album ‘The Deluder’. Whilst keeping in tune with his indie roots the singles also extend into the realms of cultivated pop, which explore a melodic and playful broodiness.
On the new single ‘Jupiter’ Woomble says “ the song actually started out as something I was making up for (and with) my son, who is eight years old and quite interested in astronomy - working on it with my band, who are all adults, it developed and took on a new meaning; the emphasis, and hope we place in mysterious things we don’t fully understand.
“Constellations, Planets, astrology, the secrets we keep from each other, while still aiming to keep some of the fun, irreverent nature of the original idea, both in the music and lyrics.”
‘The Deluder’ is released on September 1st on A Modern Way/Empty Words and is available to pre-order now from www.roddywoomble.net.
