The Word On... Familial, Philip Selway
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference."It's easy to see him not as a percussionist, but as a genuine singer-songwriter." npr.org/music
"There is enough here only to convince listeners of Selway's emerging talent as a songwriter if he sticks at it. I'm not sure what I expected, but 'Familial' is half disappointment, half potential." drownedinsound.com
"The bad news is that Selway's material, tasteful and expertly played as it is, never fully transcends the novelty of who it's coming from." pitchfork.com
"A solo album that has qualities you might not have expected to begin with: vivid, memorable lyrics that describe a variety of emotions, its incredibly soft arrangements and, of course, the fact that he can actually sing." musicomh.com
