James Yorkston, Nina Persson and The Second Hand Orchestra dévoilent leur nouveau single “An Upturned Crab”
30th November 2022
Le mois dernier, James Yorkston, Nina Persson and The Second Hand Orchestra annonçaient la sortie de leur prochain album The Great White Sea Eagle, le 13 janvier. Le groupe avait alors dévoilé un premier single “Hold Out For Love” et partage aujourd’hui un second extrait du disque, “An Upturned Crab”.
Exprimant le regret d’avoir manqué des moments de vie de famille, notamment avec leurs enfants, Yorkston et Persson chantent sur “An Upturned Crab” : “I made a life on the road, and I thought I was doing grand / But the gold remained at home and I missed watching you grow.”
JY, NP and TSHO révèlent également une version live de “An Upturned Crab”, tirée de la même session que “Hold Out For Love”, où Philip Selway de Radiohead joue de la batterie.

James Yorkston, Nina Persson and The Second Hand Orchestra The Great White Sea Eagle
Album | 13th January 2023
Yorkston and Sweden’s The Second Hand Orchestra had no real plans to do a follow up, but as James visited his studio in Cellardyke, Fife everyday in early 2021, he began to start writing songs on the piano as opposed to his usual guitar as he gazed upon the sea outside his window.
After sending the first five or six songs to Karl-Jonas Winqvist (the leader/conductor of TSHO), they began to discuss working on the music together. With Yorkston’s shift from guitar to piano, they thought about what other changes they could make to their process which led to the involvement of a guest singer and the legendary Nina Persson (The Cardigans) was brought into the fold.
