★★★
BELFAST singer-songwriter Andy White’s career spans 30 years, including collaborations with artists such as Peter Gabriel.
Following on from themes on his previous album The Guilty and the Innocent, the album’s subtitle is: “It’s Our World and This is How I See It” and, without being overtly political, the nine tracks attempt to come to terms with the bigger picture we are all faced with.
