John Grant returns with his new album, The Art of The Lie, an idea first conceived in the Autumn of 2022 after an introduction to producer and composer Ivor Guest at Grace Jones’ Meltdown Festival.
The result is his most opulent, cinematic, luxurious album yet. A record juxtaposed by beauty and cruelty, it underpins a particularly emotional new chapter in the novelistic solo life of John Grant.
“Eloquent and erudite... The Art Of The Lie is a rich and dense record that rewards repeated, attentive listening... Yet despite the lyrical prowess on display, it’s the incredibly detailed soundscape that really impresses... Grant is well on the way to creating a musical language all his own.” Record Collector – 5 stars ***** (Album of the Month)
“An eclectic, ambitious, and vital return from a one-off talent... The Art of The Lie is a perfect distillation of everything one yearns for in John Grant’s music; his golden baritone voice, icy electronic soundscapes, emotive balladry, sumptuous funk and phenomenal diction all remain intact on yet another fabulous album.” Clash – 8/10
