A supremely talented mercury prize nominee with an unrivalled critical reputation teams up with an amazing guitarist/vocalist and member of a hugely influential musical clan.

Kathryn Williams and Neill MacColl first met at the Daughters of Albion concert (part of the BBC's Folk Britannia season) where they had been paired to perform 'The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face', a song which Neill's father, Ewan MacColl, wrote for his mother, Peggy Seeger. ' We just clicked, we didn't need to say anything on stage'...recalls Kathryn, 'within a few hours of first saying 'hello' to each other, we were saying - yeah, lets get together and make a record".  The result is a sublime and intimate collection of thirteen songs recorded over two weeks in 2007.

Seven albums in, the critically acclaimed Brit-folkster Kathryn has also collaborated with the likes of John Martyn, Badmarsh and Shri, Thea Gilmore, Tobias Froberg and Ted Barnes.  Neill's career has included long spells in Eddi Reader's band, several years with David Gray, as well as Nanci Griffith, Boo Hewerdine, David Gilmour, Lou Rhodes, Beth Gibbons, Steve Earle and KD Lang, amongst others.
