Following the Mercury Music Prize nominated ‘Through the Windowpane’ (2006) the top ten ‘Red’ (2008) and Fyfe Dangerfield’s acclaimed gold selling debut solo album, ‘Fly Yellow Moon’ (2010), Guillemots recorded ‘Walk the River’ with producer David Kosten (Bat for Lashes, Everything Everything) at Bryn Derwen Studios, a converted country manor in the mountains of North Wales. ‘Walk The River’ is filled with drama and contrasts. Echoes of Roy Orbison in a multitracked choir (‘Tigers’) and psychedelic hints of the Righteous Brothers (‘Sometimes I Remember Wrong’), line up alongside the spiky energised pop of ‘Ice Room’ and the freewheeling chaos of ‘The Basket’, the first single to be taken from the album.
