Richard Skelton

Richard Skelton is an English composer and writer from Lancashire whose music and writing are closely tied to particular landscapes. He began making music after the death of his wife Louise in 2004, first issuing small CD editions on his own Sustain-Release label under his name and aliases such as A Broken Consort, Carousell and Clouwbeck. Skelton lived in Standish, near Wigan, before moving to Ireland.
