'The Hole Around My Head' represents Will Varley's first new material since 2018. The album is the first released on Yellow Cake, a record label and artist protection entity set up by record producer Cameron McVey (internationally renowned for his work with Massive Attack, Portishead, Sugababes, and his wife Neneh Cherry). McVey produced Varley's previous album, 2018's 'The Spirit of Minnie', and the two stayed in touch. The singer-songwriter self-produced 'The Hole Around My Head' in his makeshift studio on the Kent coast, playing most of the instruments himself. Having never produced an album before, he had McVey on hand via video call to offer encouragement and advice from his family spread deep in the Swedish forest.
