Release Date: 09 May 2011
You may know Sophie Barker as one of the vocalists on Zero 7’s "Simple Things", as the luscious, sweeping vocal sat at the forefront of the album’s breakaway hit "In The Waiting Line". You may also know her for her work with Groove Armada, The Egg, Grooverider, Robin Guthrie (Cocteau Twins) and Muki, or maybe for her two previous solo albums ("Lullaby" and "Earthbound"). She’s also worked on The Rainbow Collections, a series of children’s music. It’s been a packed 10 years, that’s for sure - but with the release of new album "Seagull" comes the chance to get to know the real Sophie. "Seagull" is about trust, love and emotions turning over themselves. It’s about understanding those close to you, and letting yourself go. This album marks Sophie out as an independent spirit armed with a fine collection of perceptive, soulful songs – a fitting conclusion to its many years in the making.
