Soft Tissue

Tindersticks

Elegant chamber pop defined by Stuart Staples' smoky baritone and sophisticated brass arrangements. A soulful, late-night record that feels both intimate and cinematic.

It's like a noir film score that decided to fall in love with 60s soul.

A sophisticated, soulful warmth that balances late-night melancholy with a sense of quiet renewal.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The triumphant burst of soulful brass that opens New World, signaling a brighter tone than previous records.
The delicate, interlocking guitar and piano patterns on Falling, the Light that feel like dust motes dancing in sunbeams.
The way the backing vocals on Always a Stranger provide a ghostly, gospel-tinged counterpoint to the lead baritone.
