Pour son premier album studio depuis des décennies, l'innovateur musical Thomas Dolby a composé sa musique dans le cadre d'inspiration unique d'un bateau de sauvetage restauré. Il nous livre ici en avant-première une chanson évocatrice magnifique tirée de cet album -- à propos d'une nuit avec une légende. Il est accompagné du quartet de cordes moderne Ethel.

Thomas Dolby has spent his career at the intersection of music and technology. He was an early star on MTV, then moved to Silicon Valley; now he’s back on the road (with friends) with his new album, "A Map of the Floating City." Full bio »
