The Day They Let You Out Is The Day They Might Not Let You Come Back

There are records that arrive quietly.
They don’t knock on the door. They don’t announce themselves. They simply appear, carrying with them the feeling that they have been travelling for a very long time.
The Day They Let You Out Is The Day They Might Not Let You Come Back is one of those records.

Peter Jefferies is back with a new album for Grapefruit Records, and I am incredibly proud to have painted its cover.

Twenty-five years have passed since Closed Circuit, Peter’s last proper solo album. But it would be wrong to describe these years as silence. Peter continued to make music, to collaborate, to appear in unexpected places.

For Almost Halloween Time Records, he left two particularly beautiful traces.

In 2022, Red Clover, his collaboration with Wio.
In 2025, Duit on Tuesday, a four-song tribute to Harry Nilsson, with Peter interpreting four of Nilsson’s songs.

For Grapefruit, Last Ticket Home and Clutter.

Now comes The Day They Let You Out Is The Day They Might Not Let You Come Back and Peter sounds exactly like Peter.
