Summary

Scott Walker is undoubtedly one of the most brilliant, serious and intelligent of artists today. As one of the greatest lyricists of the 20th century and front man of globally loved pop trip, The Walker Brothers, Walker commands huge devotion.

A major event, Sundog is the first ever selection of Walker’s lyrics curated by the artist himself, published for the first time with a stunning introduction by Eimear McBride. Walker’s iconic lyrics will proudly follow in the footsteps of other famous musicians who have been published by Faber & Faber, including Jarvis Cocker, Billy Bragg, and Van Morrison.

Critic Reviews

Thrillingly uncategorisable: densely allusive and imagistic, resistant to obvious interpretation and suggestive of a vast range of literary and musical interests ... Abandon yourself to Walker’s ungovernable imagination ... and almost Beckettian bleakness.

Alex Clark, The Guardian
