June Tabor's recording career has consistently reached ever higher standards of performance and interpretation. Each of her albums has sought to match the highest technical standards with emotionally powerful performances and scintillating musical arrangements. Her 2011 album is a collection of songs concerning humankind's relationship with the sea, and is already being hailed by critics and longtime fans as another career high point. The album features a powerful set of contemporary songs - including a spine-tingling version of Elvis Costello's Shipbuilding; two remarkable songs from the pen of Cyril Tawney - The Grey Funnel Line and The Oggie Man - alongside classic traditional ballads like The Bleacher Lassie Of Kelvinhaugh and The Great Selkie Of Sule Skerry.
