With the help of producer Ali Chant and a variety of other collaborators including Adrian Utley (Portishead) and Rozi Plain, Kester balances scenes of idyllic bliss from the Inchmagical and strangeInch 'Talybont-on-Usk' with existential questions on 'Departure'. Written in the nights of recording sessions in Bristol, 'Dark Sky Reserve' is the result of Kester writing from a place of newfound clarity InchI could see myself for who I am.InchAvailable in indie exclusive Opaque Blue Vinyl, standard black and CD, 'Dark Sky Reserve' sees Robin continue to grow and evolve as an artist, reaching blissful new heights in the process of doing so.
