As we go through life, we shatter, piece ourselves back together again. We find what we need to rebuild, and in that process, we become stronger. Different but the same.
Porcelain, Danny Addison’s remarkable debut, takes fragments of his journey – both musical and personal – and creates the full picture so far, the culmination of all of his ideas and experiences. Blending elements of alt-rock with cinematic soundscapes, along with his evocative storytelling and unique cadence, the album delves into thought-provoking themes of arrogance, narcissism, trauma, forgiveness and discovery. An extraordinary songwriter, Addison’s songs have a profound and fundamental honesty at their core.
Born into a music-loving family in Hitchin, Hertfordshire, Addison and his two brothers were encouraged to pursue their passions from a young age. “I think my mum always wanted to be able to play, and so she was keen for us to have some kind of skill – I started learning the violin when I was five,” he recalls. The violin continues to play a vital role in his work today, conveying much of the emotional acuity of songs such as “Stains” and “The Dune”. On the former, the propulsive rhythm of his playing conveys the hope that self-acceptance is on the horizon, while the latter uses soft flurries to evoke a sense of freedom and innocence.
