Kids these days have come to take for granted the immaculate pairing of ex-Belle and Sebastian chanteuse Isobel Campbell's breathy voice and the gravel-soaked bad boy Mark Lanegan (RIP). However until the note-perfect 2006 duo album Ballad of The Broken Seas came along, complete with dark folk, wistful 60s duets, and spooky songs, we were none the wise. Thankfully, we can announce the album is being reissued at last! - Flying Out
Originally released in 2006, Ballad Of The Broken Seas has remained a touchstone for fans of folk and Americana, revered for its haunting melodies, rich storytelling, and the captivating interplay between Campbell's ethereal vocals and Lanegan's gravelly baritone. The album was the first in a celebrated trilogy of albums that Isobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan recorded together, being followed by "Sunday at Devil Dirt" in 2008 and "Hawk" in 2010.
