Since '66, when the British singer-songwriter emerged as the voice of his generation with the seminal Family band, through every twist of his four-decade solo career, Chappo's output has defied music industry protocol, challenged genre, and held up a mirror to the times. "I've never stopped writing," he reflects, "and with Life In The Pond, I felt the need to hear what I'd put down in music."

Life In The Pond draws a line under a period in which the 79-year-old had been absent from the studio but privately prolific. Twelve years since 2009's acclaimed rarities collection Hide Go Seek, "A true lionheart still roars," raved The Mirror, Life In The Pond reconnects the veteran with faces from his past – including ex-Family multi-instrumentalist John 'Poli' Palmer as co-writer and producer while taking the pulse of modern life. "Mostly it's anger at politicians that's kept me red up," says Chapman of the lyrics.
