The Little Unsaid

The Little Unsaid unveil their video for “Surfacing”, taken from their new album, “Stay Fragile All Across This Cold Frontier”, which is available now on all platforms via Carbon Moon Records. “It’s a snapshot of every gig we did and captures something about that tour that really carried a lot of energy and emotional weight for us as we celebrated our tenth year as a band.”

John Elliott of The Little Unsaid has a way of drawing listeners in with universal truths presented in the most personal – and often poetic – of ways. On Stay Fragile All Across This Cold Frontier, the album moves from intimate piano ballads to raw blues-rock and stately meditations, confirming The Little Unsaid as one of the best-kept secrets in contemporary music.

John Patrick Elliott is an expert when it comes to making seemingly disharmonious concepts and radically disparate musical ideas work together, and My Role in the Show is the most perfectly realised example of that talent in his distinguished career.

Watch the lyric video below for Lyonesse, the first preview from the album Lost Songs of Scilly, a new collaboration between Isles of Scilly-based composer Piers Lewin and John Patrick Elliott of The Little Unsaid.

The Little Unsaid is to release a 15-track live album titled Live At The Pound. It was recorded at Pound Arts in Corsham at the end of a difficult 2022 tour for an online concert, watch them performing Milltown and Big Red.

The essence of The Little Unsaid’s songcraft is that good things (strange and remarkable things, too) can come out of bad times or uncomfortable situations. Their music is all about those contrasts, and Fable illustrates them more sharply than anything they’ve done before.

John Elliott (The Little Unsaid) is to stream an online concert from the beautiful St Giles’ Church, London on Sunday 12th December. 50% of donations will go to the Single Homeless Project who help vulnerable and socially excluded people in London transform their lives.

Elliott is living proof that a well-timed whisper can often be more consequential than a shout, and on December songs he takes that aesthetic to its quietly impressive limit. It is hard to see how this album could have come out any better.

Listen to ‘Ebb & Flow’ by The Little Unsaid from his new album ‘December Songs’. “I wanted to find simple songs that captured the melancholy of this time of year, but also the cosiness, the closeness…the promise of a different kind of year ahead.”

Their most accessible album yet, The Little Unsaid’s “Lick The Future’s Lips” is an album of variegated musical moods and songs that peer into the gloom but also spark a flicker of light in the potential to change both the world and ourselves.
