Against all odds, Keith Wodhouse, a 60-year-old artist from Totnes, England, has crafted something extraordinary with his new 13-track album, “The Planet Who.” Recorded in his care home bedroom with the help of his manager (a trained sound engineer), the project is a raw, poetic journey through Wodhouse’s singular mind—where rap poetry collides with rock influences, and Bob Dylan’s spirit meets Roy Harper’s mystique.
Written in just one month, the album is a whirlwind of creativity, with tracks like “Razzamataz” and “Psychiatrik” showcasing Wodhouse’s unfiltered lyricism and improvisational genius. His vocals—sometimes gritty, sometimes hypnotic—are layered with lo-fi, bedroom-recorded production, blending analogue warmth with digital experimentation. The result is an album that feels both intimate and expansive, like overhearing a prophet’s musings in the dead of night.
Magazines have called Wodhouse a “cryptic prophet,” and “The Planet Who” proves why. His words dart between social commentary, personal reflection, and surreal imagery, delivered with the conviction of an artist who’s been writing since he was 15 years old. There’s no polish here—just pure, unfiltered expression, making it one of the most authentic releases of the year.
A rough-edged, deeply human album that defies expectations and celebrates the power of unfettered creativity. Keith Wodhouse isn’t just making music—he’s documenting a life lived on his own terms.
