“Westerman's debut helps humanise a world in disarray”
“The British songwriter’s excellent debut mines the gentle and detailed sounds of soft rock’s past, while his lucid yet uncomplicated lyrics interrogate the uncertainty of the present.”
“Beguiling experimental folk gets existential”
“A NOTE: LOUD AND QUIET IS IN DANGER OF CLOSING. PLEASE CONSIDER SUBSCRIBING TO OUR MAGAZINE OR MAKING A SMALL DONATION HERE. THANK YOU. Two years on from the Ark EP, Westerman‘s debut album is finally here. Your Hero Is Not Dead is a collection of 12 songs which are full of the trademark dreamy, wandering sonic experiments of the London-based artist, but it’s more subdued than his previous output”
