Plenty of new reviews for The Violet Hour, click on the review link above.
26, April 2008
The new album is reviewed in the June edition of MOJO. This is what it says:
"The former Rachel Unthank & the Winterset fiddler-singer has blossomed in confidence and ideas since last year's attractive but tentative solo debut. She's singing with far more belief, and with a large supporting cast offers a well-crafted, fully rounded album of mostly English trad material, with brother Jim Moray's Wishfulness Waltz the exquisite cherry on top."
