"Book of Churches: UK Tour Tickets Available Now"
Book of Churches, the captivating solo project from Felix Mackenzie-Barrow of Divorce, has officially released its self-titled debut album through Gravity / Capitol Records. Explore this unique collection of songs that seamlessly intertwine intimate storytelling with minimal folk roots.
Felix’s journey with Book of Churches began during a period of personal transition, where he carved out moments of solitude to create music that resonates deeply with raw emotion. Each song reflects his experiences of love, loss, and a quest for understanding amidst changing landscapes. Written and recorded in an incredibly DIY fashion, the album embodies the essence of spontaneity, with songs being crafted and captured almost immediately after their conception.
The lead single, “Song By A Stranger,” acts as a blueprint for the album, offering a glimpse into Felix’s artistic vision. The new track, “All The Good Things,” has also been accompanied by a poignant video that adds a visual layer to the themes explored in his music. Felix captures the essence of a breakup in this song, weaving memories that emerged during a reflective period of search for peace and clarity.
Critics are already praising the album. Clash describes it as “intimate, minimalist folk songs” that are emotionally expansive, while Uncut highlights the blend of traditional sounds with modern indie-rock influences. This feedback underscores the appeal of Felix’s songwriting and the authenticity that is at the core of Book of Churches.
Listeners can now catch Book of Churches live on their upcoming UK headline tour, with tickets available for various stops across the country. The tour kicks off on April 23, 2026, in Brighton and continues to Manchester, Glasgow, Leeds, Bristol, London, and Nottingham, providing a fantastic opportunity to experience Felix’s heartfelt performances in person.
With each song derived from intimate notes taken during travel and periods of reflection, the album serves not only as a musical journey but as a personal diary that invites listeners into Felix’s world. The process of creation felt much like a travelogue, exploring meaningful connections that transcend distance and time.
As Felix describes his project, “These songs are my version of whatever church is.” This metaphor encapsulates the depth and spiritual resonance of Book of Churches, making it a significant addition to the alt-folk landscape.
