AMY GODDARD is fast developing a reputation as one of the most talented contemporary singer-songwriters on the folk scene today, something which can only be confirmed further by this fourth album.

Backed by guest musicians there is a rousing introduction with Make Your Mark, a song about prisoners of conscience, followed by the beautifully evocative single from the album Cornish Mist.
