Fine Line

From HitStory, the pop encyclopedia of School of Rock · Work

Fine Line · After his first solo album, Harry Styles wanted to sound more playful and adventurous. Many songs came about after the end of his relationship with the model Camille Rowe. The producer Kid Harpoon urged him to write down his feelings. Together with Tyler Johnson he recorded the album, including at the Shangri-La studio. He drew inspiration from David Bowie, Van Morrison, Paul McCartney and Joni Mitchell. Her album Blue even led him to a dulcimer, which he bought from its maker.

Fine Line is mainly a pop album with rock, psychedelia, folk, soul and funk. He wrote Golden in the studio kitchen, inspired by Van Morrison. Watermelon Sugar got its title from a novel by Richard Brautigan that was lying around in the studio. Critics were positive, especially about the production. Watermelon Sugar earned a Grammy.
