TRACK LIST
The newly remastered album features the theme to the BBC's acclaimed and multiaward-winning adaptation of Henning Mankell's Wallander novels, starring Kenneth Branagh (the last series will start screening on 8th May).Despite The Snow available on vinyl for first time as a special limited edition pressing to mark the final season of Wallander. It’s pressed on 180 gram vinyl and comes packaged in gatefold sleeve, the album comes with a download code for full album plus three bonus tracks - including the Calum Malcolm produced version of Nostalgia.
It was almost exactly eight years ago, on the Easter weekend of 2008, that Emily Barker & her erstwhile band, The Red Clay Halo, hid themselves away in an old barn in the Norfolk countryside to record what would become their first album. That weekend, temperatures plummeted across the country and it snowed relentlessly. Emily called the album Despite the Snow and released it in September that same year, with not the slightest idea of what was about to happen...
'Nostalgia' went on to win a Royal Television Society award for best original TV theme, and Emily has continued to work in TV and film, including two more with Martin Phipps (cult noir thriller The Shadow Line and The Keeping Room, starring Sam Worthington and Brit Marling), and her first full film soundtrack, for Jake Gavin's debut feature, Hector, starring Peter Mullan.
The much anticipated fourth and final season of Wallander has been announced and is due be shown on BBC TV in May, with 'Nostalgia' once again being used as the title music. To coincide with the conclusion of the series, the album has been remastered by vinyl specialists Gearbox Records and pressed at Optimal in Germany.
In June, Emily heads to Memphis to record her new solo album at Sam Phillips Recording Service, with grammy-winning producer Matt Ross-Spang at the helm.
‘stripped free of studio frippery and all the better for its carefree simplicity’ - **** - Q
‘strong melodies that at times evoke images of Richard and Linda Thompson… as strong a collection of acoustic folk songs that I have heard for a long time’ - 8/10 – Americana - uk.com
‘There’s that haunted folksy sound to Emily’s vocals which recalls Natalie Merchant’s expressive voice… a superb album’ – Pennyblackmusic.co.uk
‘Nobody sounds quite like them, and there are moments of transcendence here (on ‘Nostalgia and ‘All Love Knows’ in particular) when everything is just so...perfect that it’s all too much and a lump appears in the throat. An album of quiet power.’ - **** Rock ‘n’ Reel ‘a masterpiece that will not fade in time.’ - **** Maverick
