A print made in collaboration with Lauren Ink to herald the release of my single 'At Sea' and in anticipation of my UK tour. Previously only available at gigs, these are the last 15 prints now available online.
The song 'At Sea' is inspired by the sailing journey I made back in 2018 from the Shetland Islands to the Faroes. It evokes my 36-hour-long experience of being at the mercy of the wind and tide.
The paper is handmade by Lauren, giving it that wild and fluffy deckled edge. She chose a composition of cotton and hessian rag. Can you see the lovely fibre flecks in those close-ups? The illustration has been printed on her antique, treadle-operated printing press. These processes are slow and labour-intensive and to pursue uniformity is futile. This results in truly unique prints with so much texture and character.
The print is A4 size and comes with **5 free downloads** of my original songs including At Sea and an unreleased single. Download codes are written on a separate insert provided in the print packaging. Posted in 100% biodegradable and recycled materials.
Includes unlimited streaming of
