Description
A new take on Alberta Cross's debut album 'The Thief & The
Heartbreaker', which set the foundation for their Americana-tinged indie
and alternative sound
The album includes new versions of all the original album tracks & features a
veritable wealth of musical collaborations with close friends including Band Of
Skulls, Katie Melua, Jack Savoretti, Ed Harcourt, Starsailor's James Walsh,
Joseph Arthur, Dan Mangan, Dylan Leblanc, Tomas Andersson Wij & Arum Rae.
Originally released in 2007 as a collection of self- produced demos, Alberta
Cross's debut 'The Thief and The Heartbreaker' set the blueprint of their sound.
What followed was success on both sides of the Atlantic & this new version of
the album - recorded in Frome, Somerset, at Ethan John and Dom
Monks (Big Thief) Bert Jansch studio and mastered at the hallowed Abbey Road
Studios - honours the original whilst breathing new life into each track and
making clear that Alberta Cross's debut remains a timeless classic.
