Description
For the first time on vinyl, London Folk artist Sam Lee's highly acclaimed new album 'The Fade In Time', a follow up to 2012's 'Ground Of Its Own' - which was nominated for the Mercury Music Prize. Sam takes a 21st Century view on Folk traditions from the UK and around the world - re-imagining the British folk tradition through the eyes of the wider world.
The music takes a path from Gypsy Traveller songs, through Japanese court music to wedding marches from Tajikistan - a truly global journey, with English folk song at its heart. Sam's 5 piece band recorded the album with Arthur Jeffes (of Penguin Cafe Orchestra) and Jamie Orchard-Lisle.
