Darryl says: A stunning and enchanting collection from this folk duo. Ethereal and haunting this is on the dark side of traditional folk, think Sandy Denny or Vashti Bunyan but with a left-of-centre twist. Folk album of 2010!

ABOUT THIS ITEM

Smoke Fairies' own fairytale continues to unfold. 2009 saw them tour with Richard Hawley across Britain and be produced by Jack White for a Third Man-released 7”, while this year they were heralded as one of the band’s to see at SXSW and supported Laura Marling in the US. Most recently Jessica and Katherine added angelic backing vocals to Richard Hawley’s current EP "False Lights From The Land". When the calibre of White and Hawley are entranced, you know this isn’t fairy-tale, but the absolute truth…

Recorded at Sawmills studio in Cornwall with producer Head (best known for his work with PJ Harvey) at the controls, "Through Low Light And Trees" is an exquisitely shivery blend of alternative folk-rock and a more humid, bluesy brand of Americana, a sound both eerily ancient and thrillingly modern, with beautifully interlocking harmonies and guitar parts behind the spectral melodies…
