Today, Wednesday, April 28, Ben Watt surprise-releases Storm Shelter, a 6-track companion piece to his acclaimed 2020 studio album Storm Damage. The mini-album contains four Watt compositions and covers of Ten City s house classic That s The Way Love Is and Sharon Van Etten s Comeback Kid.
Award-winning London film-maker Rahim Moledina who wrote and directed videos for Watt s songs Hendra and Sunlight Follows the Night has made a new film to accompany That s The Way Love Is.
The mini-album, recorded during rehearsals for the Storm Damage Tour in January 2020, is a stripped-back piano-and-vocals set that was due for release during Watt s world tour last year, before it was held up by pandemic-related postponements and the ultimate cancellation of all his shows.
