Phosphorescent by Curtis Wayne Millard
This will mark Phosphorescent’s debut on Verve / Decca Records.
Matthew Houck has announced the release of his new Phosphorescent album Revelator on April 5th.
It’s been introduced with the key title-track, one Houck describes as being possibly, ‘the best song I’ve ever written’:
“This is the song that made me realize I was writing an album. There’s always one that does that Until then I’m sort of floundering around with a bunch of song bits in various stages With no clear picture of what it is I’m doing.”
Once the song Revelator came to be I could see what the album could be. I truly struggled with naming the album Revelator As I feel like it probably has certain biblical and genre connotations That don’t apply to this album or to Phosphorescent at all.
“But in the end I know what I mean by it And the album really couldn’t be called anything else And so that’s why this is the title track.”
