Bill Ryder-Jones announces new piano-led album 'Yawny Yawn'

After releasing his critically-praised fourth studio album 'Yawn' at the end of last year, Bill Ryder-Jones has now announced his plans to a piano version of his latest LP.

The new full-length 'Yawny Yawn' will feature ten stripped-down versions of the tracks that featured on his last release, is being previewed by the new rendition of 'Don't Be Scared, I Love You', and is expected to arrive on the 26th July via Domino Recordings.

Speaking about his reasons for doing a piano version, he said, “I can't remember why I thought it was a good idea to make a piano version of Yawn, I presume at some point I felt that the original had too much pep. Was actually quite fun to make although I've since developed a dislike for the way my hands look”.

Have a listen to the new version of 'Don't Be Scared, I Love You' in the player and see the album's full tracklisting below.

1. There’s Something On Your Mind (Yawny Yawn)
