About this concert
Saltburn?s finest songsmith Alex Ellis (Our Man In The Field) launches his new album ?Gold On The Horizon? on Decor Records at Cluny2. With his full band that includes Henry Senior (pedal steel, dobro), Greg Bishop (drums, harmonies), Raul Biancardi (synth) and Luke Ydstie (bass) they?ll be playing a winning combination of indie-folk and Americana with significant soulful country vibes akin to the likes of Ray LaMontagne, Damien Rice and Lambchop.
OMITF move up to a new level with ?Gold On The Horizon? & songs that range from the raw and barren ?Come Back To Me? ? which showcases Ellis? soulful vocal harmonies and a sparse arrangement of acoustic guitar and pedal steel ? to the spacious mirror ball slow-dance of ?Go Easy?, and the full, desert noir feel that runs throughout the album..

Our Man In The Field Biography
Winner of Emerging Act of the year + runner up Album of the year Americana-UK (December 2020)
Song of the year nominee, The Americana Music Association UK (winner announced January 2021)
Number 3 in the official European Americana Chart (Debut October 2020) RnR Magazine (December 2020)
Think of Our Man In The Field – AKA Alexander Ellis – as an independent correspondent, with his works dispatches from his travels. So classically crafted are Ellis’ songs that you could be forgiven for thinking you’ve heard Our Man In The Field somewhere before. He and his brilliant band of pedal steel, guitar, banjo, upright bass and drums (with fine harmony backing vocals) take inspiration from the alt-Americana and Caledonian soul stylings of Van Morrison, Neil Young, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Ryan Adams and Wilco. His own sound is indefinable yet familiar- its introspective, intimate and deeply soulful style stands comfortably alongside modern-day artists Ray LaMontagne, Damien Rice, Foy Vance and Joe Purdy.
Our Man In The Field return in 2023 with new album - Gold On The Horizon - recorded in Portland Oregon with Grammy winning producer Tucker Martine
