Search - Grand Salvo :: The Temporal Wheel

The preservation label presents 'the temporal wheel', the third album for melbourne's grand salvo. For all intents and purposes, grand salvo is the work of singer-songwriter paddy mann. Grand salvo's debut album, '1642-1727', and its follow-up, 'river road', earned him rave reviews and a solid following at home and beyond for his stark, sensitive and beautiful songs.· Surrounding the core interplay between paddy's rich, oaken voice and his acoustic guitar, his subtle and intuitive orchestral arrangements - cello, trumpet, glockenspiel, harps and various percussion - keep the easy rolling, classic feel of his songs, but also ring with sparkling creativity.· 'the temporal wheel' is an album of poignant emotional candour set in stunningly intimate atmospheres. Musically speaking, it should go some way to establish grand salvo as a most rarefied thing.
