Format: LP
Barcode: 8721093792642
Release Date: 04 Apr 2025
Genre: Jazz

Songwriter, guitarist, and producer Oscar Jerome releases his third solo LP, The Fork,  weaving sophisticated and nuanced narratives into the recognisably lyrical guitar style  with which he made his name in London's vibrant musical community

A former member of celebrated outft Kokoroko, Jerome has since honed an articulate, sensitive approach to songwriting, releasing two EPs and LPs and touring the world following his acclaimed 2022 album The Spoon.

Described by Jerome as "about coming to a reckoning with yourself," The Fork is the frst record that he has produced entirely himself, maturing a sound that owes as much to folk troubadours John Martyn and Joni Mitchell as it does to Prince and early Carlos Santana. His most personal and ambitious record to date, The Fork represents a deepening of Jerome's experience of the world through music, where a crafted metaphor or single chord can communicate feelings that are often impossible to grasp.
