This is my debut album, coming a few years after I won the 2016 BBC Radio 2 Young Folk Award. It was released on Rough Trade's new traditional music imprint River Lea. The album was produced by Aidan O'Rourke and recorded by Iain Hutchison in the historic East Church, Cromarty, and features the pioneering 82-year-old singer and piper Rona Lightfoot contributing canntaireachd.
It was named The Guardian's Folk Album Of The Month and The Quietus have named it one of the albums of the year.
Following the album's release I've been nominated for The Horizon Award at this year's BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards.
