Mr. Novembre

About

Hailing from the depths of the desert sands of Dubai, by way of France, Ireland, and many identity crises, Mr. Novembre is now a Manchester-based singer-songwriter in the mould of modern troubadours like Glen Hansard, The Tallest Man on Earth, and Laura Marling. Intricate fingerpicking patterns and sweeping open tunings coupled with a poetic turn of phrase, and a humbling incredulity, make for a passionate performer who lives every second on stage. Writing wistful songs about love, travel, idleness, perseveration, failure, and hope, Mr. Novembre blends a folky bedrock with a more intricate and lush indie sound palette, teetering between folk and rock. Inspired by many countries both lived in and travelled through, Mr. Novembre writes in English, French, and Spanish, about characters encountered, friends made, and cities discovered all over the globe. Amid the lovely beguiling Mancunians he has now settled as he builds up a fanbase playing throughout the city and its suburbs. In November 2022, Mr. Novembre released his debut album Another Chapter, a collection of earlier songs, written 6 to 12 years prior during his time studying in Paris, Bristol, and Granada, and travelling through Asia. The songs were fleshed out into fuller and richer arrangements with the help of fellow musicians and friends in Manchester. The album was preceded a few months before by an [EP] Caravan, written in a week at a static caravan in a farm in the Lake District over Covid.
