On Tuesday 31 October, Westerman will present his new album 'An Inbuilt Fault' in AB
Will Westerman can’t escape his head. Self-deluded and spiritually adrift, he’s wondering how to construct a meaningful life amid so much suffering.
On his ambling, often brilliant second album, An Inbuilt Fault, the Athens, Greece-based singer-songwriter spins loping, tangled narratives of intense isolation, failed relationships, and broken power structures over quietly complex soulful folk. For an artist whose vision of pop-rock was once so bound and clean,
Westerman now spreads himself wide across his music, forming a tapestry of rich textures and deep introspection. His songs become small fires on a starless night.

The press about An Inbuilt Fault:
- ‘Evoking the Blue Nile, Talk Talk, and even the 1975 if they weren’t ruled by ego, and adding faint shades of jazz and funk, this is extremely sophisticated and often moving soft rock.’ – The Guardian
- ‘The second album from the soft-rock innovator is world-weary and contemplative—the music adopts a lush, earthy palette and his voice sounds better than ever.’ – Pitchfork
