Jerskin Fendrix - Once Upon A Time. . . In Shropshire (Vinyl LP) PRE-ORDER

Expected Release Date: 10-October-2025 - This Pre-order will be shipped on or just before this date. Release dates are subject to alteration.

London-based artist & composer Jerskin Fendrix has announced Once Upon A Time. . . In Shropshire, his highly anticipated sophomore album, due out October 10th via untitled (recs). It follows his critically acclaimed debut album Winterreise – Loud & Quiet’s 2020 Album of The Year, as well as his Ivor Novello-winning, Oscar & Golden Globe nominated soundtrack to Yorgos Lanthimos’ Poor Things (2023).

In-between time spent nurturing his burgeoning career as a composer, Jerskin began work on OUATIS. The record threads together memories of a vibrant, rural childhood, attempting to capture a time and place that’s been altered by the ebb of time and the failings of memory. “It's not a sad thing - maybe a bit nostalgic. It’s trying to capture that feeling and how important that was to me and my friends and my family - and then how, bit by bit, it gets cracked and corrupted” he says.

Raised in the rural county of Shropshire, England, where he learnt violin and piano, Jerskin moved to London and spent 2 years nurturing a visceral live personality at the iconic Brixton Windmill, playing alongside Black Midi and Black Country, New Road. He released his debut-album Winterreise in 2020 which was described as an “unhinged collection of pop songs”, and named by Loud & Quiet Magazine as their Album of the Year.

In 2023, he scored the motion picture Poor Things directed by Yorgos Lanthimos. It is the first time the director of The Favourite and The Lobster has worked with an original composer. The score was critically acclaimed and received a range of “Best Original Score” nominations from the Oscars, BAFTAs, Golden Globes, as well as an Ivor Novello Award. The pair collaborated again on the feature film Kinds of Kindness (2024) and on forthcoming film Bugonia (2025).
