He has collaborated with Lisa Germano, Neil Hannon from the Divine Comedy, Stuart Staples from the Tindersticks, Liz Fraser from the Cocteau Twins and Jane Birkin

He's was also behind the soundtrack for the film Goodbye Lenin and the documentary Tabarly.

Last year he released Dust Lane, his sixth album, recorded in Ouessant, an island off the coast of West Britanny.

His new album Skyline comes out on October 18, and he is touring the UK in October with dates in London, Brighton, Leeds, Glasgow, Manchester and Birmingham
