OVERVIEW: Poised to launch from his status as one of fringe-folk's most critically adored artists and into the mainstream, King Creosote will release his eagerly anticipated album 'Bombshell' on September 10th. 'Bombshell' is the successor to the widely acclaimed 2005 album ‘KC Rules OK’. King Creosote, also known as the Fife-based singer-songwriter Kenny Anderson, has delivered his finest hour to date with 'Bombshell'. Highlights include the propulsive single ‘You’ve No Clue Do You’. At the other end of the Creosote spectrum is 'The Racket They Made', a shimmering, hymnal duet written by Anderson with HMS Ginafore. Between these polarities, there is menace aplenty in the title track & a healthy slice of romantic self-mockery, Anderson's default mode as a lyricist, in 'Cowardy Custard'. A veteran of almost 30 albums, mostly released solely as ltd ed. CDRs, King Creosote raised the stakes with 2003's 'Kenny and Beth's Musical Boatride' album, his first to receive a widespread release courtesy of Domino. The following year's 'Rocket DIY' took Anderson to the next level before moving to 679 for 'KC Rules OK' which confirmed his potential as an accomplished singer-songwriter whose talents could no longer be confined to the underground of British folk.
