Mother and daughter British folk doyennes and extended family’s first album since 2010 features wonderful interpretations of songs by Tom Waits, Nick Lowe, KT Tunstall and Monty Python. As two of the UK’s finest exponents of traditional song, Norma Waterson and Eliza Carthy’s rich, distinctive and authentic voices have engaged new audiences and admirers across two generations. Between them, they have three prestigious Mercury Prize nominations, an MBE each for services to English music and have both been presented with BBC Folk Singer of the Year awards, as well as innumerable other accolades. Eliza recently embarked on her most ambitious project yet by recording and touring with the 12 piece Wayward Band, a 12-piece. The resulting album, Big Machine, garnered both acclaim and more Radio 2 Folk Awards nominatiions in 2018 (‘Best Group’ and ‘Best Album’). Although they have recorded independently and together on many occasions over the years, Gift (2010) was Norma and Eliza's first duo release, produced by Eliza. The album went on to pick up Best Album and Best Traditional Track at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards. The remarkable new album, Anchor, produced by Neill MacColl and Kate St. John, was recorded in their English home town of Robin Hood’s Bay and features an eclectic and beguiling collection of both traditional and contemporary songs. Amongst the 11 tracks we find Norma leading on Tom Waits’ Strange Weather and The Beast in Me by Nick Lowe. Trad Arr. The Elfin Knight sees Eliza supported by Norma, Martin and extended family, Lost in the Stars is a wonderful take on the Kurt Weill classic, while Shanty of the Whale, also featuring guest vocals of Martin Carthy, is a track written by KT Tunstall inspired by the singing of the Watersons, now come full circle in mutual respect and admiration.
