Our album 'Outremer: Beyond the Sea' from 2019 currently only exists on digital platforms (streaming and downloads). However, after many requests, we are working on producing a CD version of the album. There'll be a Kickstarter project to help us fund the production costs and we are aiming to start this project on the 15th December 2024.

Please consider helping us get this over the line and also bagging for yourself one of a variety of rewards as a result.

The album can be streamed on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/album/36peIpV6qTlYQ7YgAs6BNM?si=0sSwtbwnQIubOudqyz4HDw
