Any more information you would like to tell us?

Orkney Monster is the long-awaited third album by The Chair, a band now synonymous with barnstorming festival concerts and late-night parties. Drawn from their experiences of island living, the album features many tunes written by the band, ranging widely from rollicking reels to mellifluous and sensitive airs, songs by Tim O'Brien and Tom Waits, and just about everywhere in between. Orkney Monster was arranged, recorded and produced to capture as much of the band's sizzling onstage energy as possible.
