Album Notes & Community Reviews

Following the disbandment of Spriguns of Tolgus, vocalist Mandy Morton continued her exploration of progressive-tinged folk-rock with this solo debut. 'Sea of Storms' retains the lush, acoustic instrumentation of her previous band while adopting a slightly slicker, more contemporary studio production. It remains a highly regarded, melancholic late-era entry in the classic British folk-rock revival.
