Dry The River’s P.D. Liddle launches solo career with debut single, London gig


P D Liddle




Dry The River frontman P.D. Liddle has begun a solo career with the release of his debut single You Shouldn’t Have Called.

After his previous band’s dissolution in 2015, Liddle is returning with this track and plans for a first live outing at the London Omeara on April 13th. Some familiar faces from his Dry The River days are expected that evening.

Live4ever sat down with Dry The River at the South By Southwest Festival after praising what proved to be their final studio album Alarms In The Heart as one with ‘classically themed intellectual content‘:

“Liddle’s poignantly, near-shrieking vocals add further pertinence to a solemn account of death and betrayal on the single ‘Gethsemane‘, providing a segment of slow burning plucked acoustic splendour which showcases the band at their contrastingly stripped back best, harnessing the penetrating wit of the religious subject matter which draws on the eponymous garden in Jerusalem where Jesus was said to have been arrested before crucifixion.”

“‘Everlasting Light‘ arrives towards the latter stages, offering another stand out which comprises arguably the greatest balance of understated verse mixed with ever bolstering melodies.”
