Description:

Imagine if your favourite books came with a soundtrack. How much more swept up would you be if they had a surging musical undertow, just as they do in the movies? That's the idea explored here by folk musician Kathryn Williams and author Laura Barnett, the former having written the accompaniment to the latter's new novel about a Joni Mitchell-like singer who retreats from fame after her 70s heyday.

For Williams, who has previously conceived a concept album about Sylvia Plath, it's an opportunity to somewhat awkwardly apply her delicate whimsy to blues-rock (Road of Shadows), smoky girl group-pop (She Wears a Dress), Mazzy Star influences (Lilies) and even some ham-fisted electronica (Architect). At first it's a jolting listen, but on songs such as Queen of the Snow and Gethsemane Williams's songwriting feels lusher and more natural. Whatever the genre, though, you really need care about the character to appreciate the depth of the songs; in which case, read the book first.
