atest album, an ode to childhood, death and new beginnings.

The original acoustic tracks were written in one frenzied hour, in the isolated woods of the Essex countryside. All the tracks were completely improvised, and inspired by legendary folk musician John Fahey's ‘Open C’ tuning; the album was then completed over a number of months as strings, electronics and field recordings were added.

“When my father passed away I started to cast my mind back to my childhood, and a bolt of nostalgia hit me, a warm, rejuvenating sensation. I wanted the album to capture this spirit so I recorded it in a place I knew well from my childhood. It was important that it was outside, among nature but also a stone's throw from creaking train tracks and dirt tracks of suburbia. The original plan was to create very simple acoustic tracks: one take, improvised songs – but once I took these skeletal tracks into the studio they began to grow and blossom.”
