Machines Will Never Learn to Make Mistakes Like Me.
It’s a fitting title for Will Varley’s latest album, especially for a songwriter who has spent much of his career trying to make sense of what it means to be human.
“I tend to use songwriting to try to make sense of things, to help me navigate through my life,” Varley said in a recent interview. “If those songs are useful to other people, then that is a great privilege.”
Across seven albums, the English singer-songwriter has built an international following with songs that find their way through relationships, life on the road and the strange task of carrying on with everyday life while the wider world feels increasingly uncertain.
Along the way, he’s gone from open mics in South London to stages including the Royal Albert Hall and Glastonbury, with more than 50 million streams and support from artists including Billy Bragg, Frank Turner and Adam Duritz.
Will Varley comes to Live From The Divide on Saturday, Oct. 10.
