The second album from The Gentle Waves, pressed on vinyl for the first time since its initial release in November 2000 and re-released for Record Store Day 2024.
Recorded during Isobel Campbell's time with Belle and Sebastian, the album also features Stuart Murdoch, Stevie Jackson, Chris Geddes, Richard Colburn and Mick Cooke from Belle and Sebastian, as well as Jonny Quinn from Snow Patrol and Eugene Kelly of The Vaselines.
There are arrangements by the Scottish Bafta-winning, neo-classical composer Paul Leonard-Morgan, who has scored several movies and TV series (Fellow Travelers, The Pigeon Tunnel), and works in collaboration with Philip Glass.
The album was recorded in Glasgow at CaVa Studios during late 1999/early 2000 and the wistful retro video for ‘Falling From Grace’, set in a Glasgow hair salon, was directed by Isobel.
