Earlier this year, on a wintry day we journeyed west to rural Cornwall to record our album.
We arrived that evening in a small fishing village just as a rain shower was setting in. Supplied with torches we were guided along a quarry railway track and up a woodland path until we could see the lights of Sawmill studio glowing across the creek. Our producer, Head, who had arrived a few minutes earlier to find a deserted studio spotted our torch-lights and greeted us with a loud shout that echoed through the silent woods.
As we spent the first few days playing and recording the songs live we were able to watch the tide come and go through the studio windows and monitor its height in relation to the full moon that occurred halfway through our 10 days there. All of us were effected by the rising tides, bird watching, boat trips and hearing the eerie quarry train at night and as the recordings developed we felt the atmosphere of the location seep into the songs.
We are pleased to announce the results of our efforts ‚Through Low Light and Trees‘ is to be released on Monday 6th September in the UK with EU, Japan, Australia & a USA release following soon after.
This Monday (July 19th) we will be making one of the album tracks, ‘Strange Moon Rising’ available for you to hear so please check the www.SmokeFairies.com site after 6pm BST.
