Will Gardner’s debut album is a personal story about loss, memory, and care-work told through poignant, disfigured soundscapes & half-remembered idylls of haunting, impressionist piano.

Gardner recalls his experiences caring for his father through late-stage Parkinson’s dementia – exploring a ‘sonic imagining’ of dementia alongside his own experience as a carer – the grief of losing a parent in slow motion; and what it means to grieve for someone who is still alive.

At the heart of the album are his father’s diaries. Fragments of the text were used to derive the rhythms and melodies on which the album is built before the text was then removed so only the music remained.
