Idiot Prayer is a sombre, intimate and mesmerising live recording of Nick Cave's intimate solo piano show, recorded at Alexandra Palace's West Hall during lockdown and featuring 21 career-spanning tracks.
One of the finest songwriters to have spanned two different centuries, long may he continue to be heard long into the next!
"Cave's performance in an empty hall, with just piano and voice, seems to try and ward off the terrifying silence of the COVID-19 age" - The Guardian
