All of the pieces of music that feature on this album instantly struck a chord with the artist the first time they heard them. Their approach here has been simply to connect as honestly as possible with them.

The intention was to produce a solo concertina album using the full range of concertinas from bass, baritone, treble to piccolo, and to highlight some of the instrument's possibilities spanning across seven octaves. Each track is one take, featuring one concertina and are all free from studio manipulation. They have sourced previously unrecorded music, new compositions and other tunes within the tradition that have been their companions and their internal sound track during their life to date.
