Comments Davidson: “Please baby please, written a state of suspended infatuation. Am I in love? Or do I just need to write a song to get this floating dream out of my system. Who am I in love with. Could it be you? Are you the one? Talking to the mirror now over and over. Please baby please. I had to write this song to escape the spell of love that was cast on me. After a few days sitting with it I realized I as going to be ok.”
“Heaven Is Falling” “ …. highlighting Davidson’s unique blend of Gothic Americana” Rolling Stone (NZ)
“‘Out of My Head,’ the 10th solo album from acclaimed New Zealand singer-songwriter Delaney Davidson, will be released on May 31.” Gutfeeling Records will Release the European Vinyl Edition.
What does the 10th solo studio album mean to a man standing on the precipice of 50 as his touring world territory crossfades into his house and backyard?
Out Of My Head presents songs written over the global pandemic lockdown period with Davidson navigating the personal political landscape he seems to feel at home in.
Mortally convinced, skeptically tender, reflective, yearning, gravitas and anguish, need, forgiveness, wry self-acceptance, frustration and release. We run the gamut from rage and despair to protection and love. Spells to conjure a lover in a moonlit dreamscape. Intimate whisperings in the close darkness. Velvet dark water and silver.
Co-producer Mark Perkins (Merk) brings his own luscious synth atmospheres to Davidsons songs, giving a cinematic and deluxe feel to the album. Guest appearances from Marlon Williams (Drive Me Wild) and Reb Fountain (Heaven Is Falling) help fill the role call with Davidsons voice coming into its own.

“I have always helped other people like Tami, Marlon and Troy Kingi make these rich albums and when I asked Mark to come co-produce with me I think what I was really wanting to do was finally make one of these albums for myself.”
Watch The Video “Don’t walk away from love”
Recorded in Kurow and Diamond Harbour (New Zealand), the songs were written largely by Davidson with notable co-writes Hayley Westenra, Sam Scott, Marlon Williams and Miranda Eastern.
Given the time to stand still in his globetrotting schedule produces a rare album from Davidson and Out Of My Head presents a body of work that makes up a poised and polished album.
