A few days ago I talked about new album releases and the difficulty of spotting all the interesting ones. Well, here’s one that had slipped my radar and was released yesterday: Newton Faulkner’s Rebuilt by Humans. It’s is a follow-up to his debut album Hand Built by Robots. I haven’t been listening to this British singer-songwriter that much, but I’m liking his music more and more. He has a cool overly percussive style to play the guitar (unless he’s just fingerpicking), evident in his live performances. His style bears some resemblance to another young guitarist, Petteri Sariola, who I wrote about last winter.

The new album by Newton Faulkner sounds good, like his last one did, but it’s too early for me to say anything more about it. Here’s a live performance of, If This is It, which is the first single off the album.
