Press Release

The Kings Of Rock'n'Roll

Prefab Sprout return with their eagerly anticipated new album 'Let's Change The World With Music' September 7th 2009, their first since their 2001 record The Gunman And Other Stories.

Prefab Sprouts classic pop and elegant ballads have provided us with uplifting songs carrying a poignant emotional weight. Rising to fame in the 80s Prefab Sprout are one of Britains most endeared bands. The bands singer-songwriter Paddy McAloon is revered for his critically acclaimed, intelligent songwriting and is regularly lauded as one of the great British songwriters.

Let's Change The World With Music was written and produced by Paddy McAloon at Andromeda Heights and mixed in Scotland by Calum Malcolm. The record kicks off with the hip-hop influenced hook-laden piano led Let There Be Music, which sets the tone for the rest of the record.

Paddy began work on Let's Change The World With Music in 1992 in what was the follow-up to Jordan: The Comeback. 17 years later Paddy returns to the songs that are some of his personal favourites that he has ever written.

The 11-tracks are rejoiceful and uplifting, striking an endearingly familiar chord, all the while sounding fresh and timeless. Highlights are aplenty and include the celestial Ride, the jazzy sway of I Love Music and the melancholic Sweet Gospel Music.

Seven of Prefab Sprouts albums have reached the Top 40 in the UK. Their 1988 album Langley Park To Memphis charted at No.5 and their 90s album Jordan: The Comeback yielded a Brit Award nomination for album of the year. The bands classic single, The King of Rock 'N' Roll peaked at No. 7.
