Check out all the amazing press on “Lustre”. Thank you everyone for all your support!
“Live, every song oozed joy as did Harcourt”— The Times (London), Live Review June 2010 – 5 stars
“Sussex songwriter makes fifth record his best.”— Mojo (London), August 2010 – 4 stars
“Diamonds abound, but the fist-clenching ‘Lustre’ itself; the grizzled, piano-powered
‘Heart Of A Wolf’ and the summery ‘Do As I Say, Not As I Do’ radiate addictive hooks,
adult lyrics and a hitherto lacking sense of joy.”
— Q (London), July 2010 – 4 stars
“Brilliant upsurge from oft-undervalued songsmith.”
— Uncut (London), July 2010 – 4 stars
“Lustre, is easily his most upbeat to date, with nods to the sunnier side of the Beach Boys
and Moondance-era Van Morrison. Its first single, ‘Do As I Say, Not As I Do,’ is
perilously close to jaunty pop.”
— The Times (London), June 23, 2010 – 4 stars
“Apprenticed to Tom Waits, Paul McCartney and Scott Walker, among others, the 32-
year-old new father might just have become a master craftsman.”
— Financial Times (London), June 12, 2010 – 4 stars
“This fifth studio album may be Ed Harcourt’s best yet.”
— The Sun (London), June 11, 2010 – 5 stars
“Harcourt has this time hit a deep seam of outrageously melodic piano-pop.”
— The Mail (London), June 11, 2010 – 4 stars
“This [Lustre] is a remarkable achievement.”
— The Sunday Times (London), June 13, 2010 – Album of the Week – 4 stars
