What you sayNo-one has reviewed Table For One- The Desert Menu by Darren Hayman yet.
What we say
He's so prolific DARREN HAYMAN it seems everything he says is a song and put to print. Thusly we treated to songs about cups of tea and bacon baps. Here he is with Table For One: The Dessert Menu. Really loved his 7" around Britains coastlines but here he's got his electric guitar back and lost a little eccentric madness. However his lyrics are still fast and funny while his songs are kooky and fun. Yeah! Great pop tunes and if you dig his voice then he's a good place to hang out and have some fun! 6 track Ep out on Track and field. What the label says:Former Hefner frontman Darren Hayman provides an extra helping of love, loss and tales about his favourite cafés. Bruised and bloodied, former Hefner frontman Darren Hayman, crawls out from his car wreck life armed with only his battle scarred telecaster and ukulele for protection. Darren's been given a right kicking by the music biz, but he's not down, in fact he's smiling ear to ear. In the past two years since his last album with The French, Darren has worked for The Peoples Dispensary For Sick Animals, Battersea Dogs Home, gotten married, formed a bluegrass band, put on a lot of weight and is currently studying an Art PGCE at Goldsmiths College. "If I don't work I go nuts, I wasted six months addicted to internet chess" says Hayman. The tracks on this mini album were recorded during the sessions for the ‘Table For One’ album. More real drums and guitars mark a return to the indie folk style of Hefner, but better. "Every time a write a song its better then the last one", continues Hayman. "I thought it was that way for everyone?" . The songs on Hayman’s debut album ‘Table For One’ concerned crumbling cafes, dog charities and a broken-hearted Doug Yule. If you enjoyed that one, you’ll love this. It’s not fun in Darren’s head but it IS fun to watch and listen from a distance. |
