LIATH is the new project by Bobby Wratten, known for his work with The Field Mice, Northern Picture Library, and Trembling Blue Stars. With LIATH, Wratten creates evanescent atmospheres, crystalline and delayed guitars, sweet voices, minimalism, and of course, Pop songs.

Six years after his last release for Elefant Records, Bobby Wratten (The Field Mice, Trembling Blue Stars), returns under his Lightning In A Twilight Hour moniker. Having released a Double-LP, a 10", and a 12" for Elefant, plus a cassette for Touch subsidiary The Tapeworm, this release marks the first ever Lightning In A Twilight Hour 7" Single. Produced in association with long term collaborator Ian Catt, these two songs trailer but do not feature on, the forthcoming second Lightning In A Twilight Hour album. Bobby and Ian have worked together since the first ever recordings of the increasingly influential The Field Mice. Other long-term fellow travellers are also present: Anne Mari Davies (The Field Mice, Northern Picture Library, Trembling Blue Stars), Beth Arzy (Trembling Blue Stars, Jetstream Pony, The Luxembourg Signal) and Michael Hiscock (bassist and co-founder of The Field Mice). 

The open tuned guitars and layered harmonies of the A-side, "The Circling Of The Seasons", belong to the more pop influenced end of the musical spectrum. The B-side, "Neuchâtel", on the other hand, ventures into darker waters. A distorted single chord and a broken up wordless vocal creating a mood piece. Here we have the two sides of Lightning In A Twilight Hour on a single record.
