John Garrison’s new album, DEPARTURES, has been named Britsound Radio’s British Album of Year.

“…But if there is any justice in this world then John Garrison will gain a larger audience from this album, which is full of songs that soar and shimmer in their emotional intensity. From So Close to Let’s Run, listening to ‘Departures’ means you’ll go places emotionally that few albums are capable of taking you to. It’s hands-down one of the best British albums of this year, and Britsound’s choice as album of the year. As authentic as it gets.”
