An ever-shifting U.K. ensemble commandeered by singer/guitarist Glen Johnson, Piano Magic is a restless and eclectic act, consistent only in its devotion to a dark, melancholy aesthetic. Actively recording since the mid-1990s, the collective has shifted labels numerous times, with stints at 4AD and Darla, and its sound has followed suit, often moving from post-rock to ambient to dream-pop or any combination thereof. Although Piano Magic’s profile lowered after it departed 4AD, its output barely slowed, with Johnson issuing fine albums such as THE TROUBLED SLEEP OF PIANO MAGIC (2003) and PART MONSTER (’07).
