The Perry Vale Sessions

Chris Marksberry – singer-songwriter based in SE London.

The Perry Vale Sessions is Marksberry’s second official full length album.

Recorded at Perry Vale Studios with Pat Collier (The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Wonder Stuff) and Jess Corcoran (Shed 7), and with David Holmes at Lightship 95. The album is a collection of 11 original new tracks that draw on the styles of rock n roll, folk rock and blues.

The lyrics are story driven and biographical. Last year’s 5* debut album ‘End of the American Dream’ was largely penned on the piano and had a concept based around Marksberry’s American roots. ‘Perry Vale’ moves the dial to electric guitar and shows Marksberry as a singer-songwriter finding his own voice and direction. Produced with raw and spontaneous arrangements, there is energy and vitality throughout the set.
