‘Almost A Sunset ‘, their seventh album, is a collection of thoughtful, varied songs that range from re-worked traditional ballads to the off-piste storytelling style that has become their trademark. It has been 5 years since the last offering from the popular husband and wife duo Kathryn Roberts and Sean Lakeman and their new album proves that the wait was very much worth it. It’s a ‘tour de force’ of musical and lyrical surprises. Recorded at Devon-pace in their studio on Dartmoor over the course of a year, the couple explore favourite characters, childhood memories and deep emotion to pull together a collection of songs that demonstrate their musical versatility, a sharp interest in the world around them and their own unique perspective on the folk genre.

'On Reflection' celebrates 25 years of Kathryn Roberts and Sean Lakeman making music together. For their silver anniversary the couple decided to re-visit a selection of songs from their career to date. Recording solely as a duo they re-interpreted numbers from their early days in folk supergroup 'Equation' as well as their time as a duo evolving from respected interpreters of traditional material to the praised songwriters they have become today. With a nod to their past but with eyes firmly set on the future ‘On Reflection’ balances perfectly where this much loved duo have come from and where they choose to set their musical course together.
