"On 23rd April 2010, Andrew Paine and Alistair Crosbie met at the Mitchell Library in Glasgow, walked to the 4th floor and requested a piano carrell each. They had done this before, both separately and together. As their previous joint visit had birthed "Treenails" - fondly regarded by both - they did this in good spirits. After an hour or so's playing, they exchanged recordings and set to work on what each other had done. Mr Crosbie considered some processes and looked fondly at his dictaphone. Mr Paine considered his guitar and wrote some words.

On 22nd April 2011, Andrew Paine and Alistair Crosbie met at Alistair's flat in Glasgow. They compared recordings, discussed things, decided they didn't need everything they'd recorded, discussed other things and assembled "Headwaters".

They hope you enjoy it"
