Featuring an eclectic array of work spanning across their 20+ year career, fans can expect to hear anything and everything from the warm, mellow sounds of their band works, to their accomplished solo careers, all alongside nuggets of the unheard and unreleased. Since their 1998, Mercury Prize winning debutBring It On, EnglandsGomezhave consistently blown away their audiences, be it their loyal fanbase or critics worldwide and this rare outing is not one to be missed, for seasoned followers and fresh fans alike.The presence of multiple, uniquely talented vocalists withinGomezhas always been one of their primary strengths, setting them well aside from their contemporaries. The powerful, soulful voice ofBen Ottewellhas always beautifully complimented the softly sungIan Ball, and when Tom Grays presence is thrown into the mix, the three voices explode in musical passion of mythical proportions. Their solo careers also highlight these harmonious differences:Ben Ottewells 2011 solo debutShapes & Shadowsdisplayed his effortless ability to craft Singer-Songwriter tunes with overtones of Blues Rock (a sound further dived into on his following two records,RattlebagandA Man Apart), whileIan Ballexplored a sound more comfortably akin to Indie Pop and Folk Rock on his one and only solo album,Who Goes There.Combined,Ben OttewellandIan Balldetonate audiences with their uncontested, oxymoronic, sonic beauty.
