about

“The gnarly acoustic rock of I Play My Shadow is the debut release for President Sweetheart, also know as frequent collaborators Nick Holton and Tom Butterworth. The album, on yellow vinyl LP, is full of grizzled lo-fi tunes formed from the duo’s long working relationship and personal friendship. This is a joyous collection of great melodies and eccentric arrangements.“ Norman Records

"Excellent debut album from new Devon/Cornwall-based super group, which has been released in a limited vinyl edition of 250 copies" -Penny Black

The duo of Nick Holton and Tom Butterworth have come up with a debut album that is a low-key delight. It’s an acoustic affair, full of backroom of the pub charm, which very occasionally (the nine-minute long Our Love) dabbles in the prettier end of psychedelia. The album documents some rough times, but the warmth of the melodies pulls you in. - The Crack
