Rough Trade Exclusive - comes with a 4-track Bonus CD entitled Aforger Solo featuring solo versions of the album tracks recorded at The Church Studios. Following his acclaimed debut Whelm, London-based singer-songwriter and pianist Douglas Dare returns with his sophomore album Aforger. In a digital age where memories are mimicked by pixels and identity is as malleable as static, Douglas Dare's new album Aforger questions the boundaries between reality and fiction. Inspired by recent events and revelations encountered in his life these songs depict Dare at his most vulnerable, whilst simultaneously reflecting our own obsession with reality and technology back at us. Aforger was produced by long-time collaborator Fabian Prynn, mixed by Paul Gregory of Lanterns On The Lake and mastered at the iconic Abbey Road Studios.
