Tim Keegan - Vide Grenier - Black Bio Vinyl LP | Pre-Order 11.12.26

My latest album Vide Grenier (it means Emptying the Attic or Yard Sale in French) was produced by Simon Edwards (Fairground Attraction, Billy Bragg, Kathryn Williams)and features an outstanding backing band of close friends, collectively known as The Personals. They are Bernd Rest, Jimmy Count, Ginny Clee and Simon Edwards. Vide Grenier follows on from my solo albums The Long Game (2015) and Foreign Domestic (2007) and features the singles Intensive Care Unit, Pomme de Terre and Jamie’s Going Snowboarding. It comprises 11 songs which I wrote over quite a long period (from 1990 to 2024) and each song is a snapshot from a different period in my life; I like to think of it as a 'Best Of' with a twist, in that none of the tracks has been heard before. I’m thrilled to be playing these songs live with this great band. In the UK Tim is perhaps best known as frontman of the acclaimed 4-piece, Departure Lounge, folktronic pioneers and darlings of the fledgling Bella Union label in the early 2000's ("casebook studies in flawless songwriting" according to the NME, “some of the most wonderful, eclectic, optimistic pop music being created at the moment", said the Sunday Times, who made their debut Out Of Here Album of the Week). DL’s Kid Loco-produced follow-up, Too Late to Die Young, was hailed as "a top to bottom masterwork" by influential US music magazine, Magnet, and became BBC 6 Music's first ever Album of the Week.
