Album Notes & Community Reviews

Kathryn Williams's second studio album, 'Little Black Numbers' was nominated for the Mercury Prize and is dedicated to her friend Mike Tunner, whose death 'Fell Down Fast' addresses directly. Its twelve songs established the Newcastle-based singer's hushed, close-miked delivery as a fixture of British folk pop.
