<p>Italian-born, London-based singer-songwriter Emma Tricca's life was shaped by encounters with folk legends. As an apprentice songwriter, she met John Renbourn after his solo show in Rome. Encouraged by his approval of her own song, Emma gained the confidence to start writing and gigging properly. She remains close friends with Renbourn. Shortly after meeting him, she also had the privilege of meeting Odetta, the mysterious and legendary singer who influenced Bob Dylan's acoustic music in the late '50s.</p>

As someone who has spent the years since her last record travelling between London, Rome and New York, it works to Tricca’s advantage that she’s able to respond whenever inspiration strikes. Songs for this album were penned in Soho cafes, Pigneto apartments and Bushwick lofts. If the album is formed together by countless everyday images and experiences from an artist who is creatively alert at all times, then it was carried over the finish line by an equally vast and eclectic number of musicians. Sonic Youth’s Steve Shelley is on drums, Pete Calub on bass, The Dream Syndicate’s Jason Victor on guitar (amongst other instruments) and various guest performances come from the likes of Howe Gelb, Paper Dollhouse’s Astrud Steehouder and folk icon Judy Collins. Collins, who loved Tricca’s 2009 record <i>Minor White</i> (released on Jane Weaver's record label Bird) and got in touch, was an especially big deal for Tricca.
