The Beggar' . . .but here's someone who really deserves the "singer/songwriter" title, because he does both close to perfection.' Nick Bollinger, RNZ'His debut as Herriot Row . . . confirms our belief that he is one of our finest singer-songwriters.' Graham Reid, Elsewhere Lesser Stars is the debut album from Herriot Row, the new musical moniker of Auckland singer-songwriter Simon Comber. The album was recorded in San Francisco with revered analogue producer John Vanderslice, known for his work with the Mountain Goats and Spoon. Lesser Stars finds Comber setting a wide range of poetic narratives to a vulnerable analogue recording aesthetic. ‘Learning Not To Talk’ captures a minor epiphany in which the narrator realises the intimacy of shared silence. ‘The Usual Business’ does a 180-degree turn about and beyond the city at twilight, peeking into the lives of preachers, prisoners, sailors, singers and more. The haunting chorus of new single ‘Out Of The Ordinary’ suggests that if you're struggling to dream outside the frame of your everyday routine, then you're not the only one. This isn't enough solace for the singer, who's still yearning for some form of re-enchantment right to the bittersweet end of the song. ‘The Beggar’ follows the ghost of New Zealand poet RAK Mason out to the edge of Auckland’s Queens Wharf. John Vanderslice’s defiantly straight-to-tape production brings the new album closer to the warmth and fragility of Herriot Row’s compelling live shows, ensuring Lesser Stars is the most fully realised set of songs Comber has yet offered up.
