Before the sun

"Formerly part of her family's a capella group, The Dunns, Hannah Sanders returned to music in 2013 having taken a sabbatical to travel America and to pursue a career as a cultural anthropologist during which she became a leading expert on contemporary witchcraft and popular culture ... Recorded in Toronto with award-winning producer David Travers-Smith, as with the debut, the material embraces a mix of covers, traditional and self-penned numbers by the duo, again reflecting British and American influences, but the jazzy flavours are almost absent, the emphasis now much more on folk, traditional in particular".

"How things have moved on since Hannah's mightily impressive Charms Against Sorrow album, where she was both accompanied superlatively on dobro and guitar and produced by The Willows' Ben Savage, for theirs is now a fully-fledged musical partnership; we can hear that Hannah and Ben were just born to play and sing together. Here, Ben's breathy, confidential singing voice really comes into its own in duet with Hannah, justifying true joint-billing".
