The seventh album from Foy Vance, &#39;The Wake&#39; marks the completion of a decades-long journey defined by tireless soul-searching and life-altering revelation. Overcome by grief and a galvanizing clarity, Vance resolved to create seven albums informed by the loss of his father—a traveling preacher who moved their family to the American South when Vance was a baby. At turns devastating and ecstatic and wildly illuminating, &#39;The Wake&#39; reveals an artist highly attuned to the task of preserving the human spirit in an often-unforgiving world.

Produced by Ethan Johns (Brit Award-winning producer), &#39;The Wake&#39; brings Vance’s gritty vocal work to a potent convergence of folk and soul and Southern blues, instilling every moment with an unbridled vitality. In his intimate exploration of the human condition, the Scotland-based artist muses on matters both intensely personal (fatherhood, heartbreak) and wholly existential (the slippery essence of time, the looming crisis of AI’s unchecked ascent). 

The final volume in a run of albums that began with his 2007 debut &#39;Hope&#39;—and also includes standouts like 2016’s &#39;The Wild Swan&#39; (executive-produced by Elton John), 2019’s &#39;From Muscle Shoals&#39; and &#39;To Memphis&#39; (recorded at the historic FAME Studios and Sam Phillips Recordings Studios, respectively), and 2021’s &#39;Signs of Life&#39; —the result is the purest distillation yet of his truly singular artistry, imparting a defiant joy into songs of longing and loss and hard-won acceptance.
