Gill Sandell - Light The Boats

Solo album from acclaimed modernist folkie who works with Emily Barker and Frank Turner. Guests include Adrian Crowley, Chris T-T and Ali Friend (Imagined Village).Gill Sandell's life has turned upside down in the past few years. She has played Wembley Arena and the Olympics Opening Ceremony with Frank Turner; toured Europe, the UK and Australia as multi-instrumentalist in fast rising and hugely praised folk quartet Emily Barker & The Red Clay Halo.Gill performed the intense, atmospheric pipe organ chords to open acclaimed BBC drama series The Shadow Line (on the Royal Festival Hall's pipe organ, no less). After a decade of working mainly with other artists (including the iconic Broken Family Band at their peak) Gill is increasingly recognised as a wonderful, intuitive musician in her own right. Hear her at her stunning best on her own dark contemporary folk songwriting.
