Marking 40 years since The Housemartins released their debut album Hull: 0 London: 4, Paul Heaton returns with Jenius, another masterful collection from one of Britain's most prolific and enduring songwriters.
Across a career spanning more than four decades, Heaton has written countless songs through The Housemartins, The Beautiful South, his solo work, and collaborations with Jacqui Abbott, earning multiple gold, platinum, and chart-topping albums along the way.
Arriving less than two years after the Top 5 success of The Mighty Several, Jenius features 15 new songs that showcase Heaton's trademark wit, warmth, and sharp observations on everyday life, effortlessly balancing humour, poignancy, and social insight.
