Wherever You Are is the new solo piano album, played and composed by John Foxx.

Most of the recordings were made at home and in the early hours of the morning in the weeks following his rare live performance at Kings Place, London in October 2023, as part of Hannah Peel's Night Tracks event for BBC Radio 3.

"Around dawn is the best time to play piano." says Foxx. "Self-critical mechanisms mostly dormant, so I’m free to invent and enjoy for a while. The piano faces a window overlooking a valley surrounded by hills, where the sun comes up. There’s often an early mist in the valley - and quite often, it rains. Some notes and sounds resonate with remembered experiences and you get glimpses of times and people. It’s valuable. Quiet. Free association, myriad moments orbiting - and off you go."

He adds: "Lately I’m realising how we get formed by other people. Everyone we know or knew, who affects the way we think and the way we see things - even in a small way, has a voice, and all those voices remain in a sort of lifelong conversation. I hear them all the time. It’s not at all frantic, it’s more oceanic - calm and pleasant and it eventually makes us the way we are."

"Luckily, I seem to have met - and meet - mostly good, generous, bright people and I’m still learning a great deal from all of them. They give you the touchstones, the maps, the weather. It’s how we find our way."

So - simply, thanks. Wherever you are."
