The Kittiwakes are Kate Denny on vocals and violin, Chris Harrison on accordion and Jill Cumberbatch on violin, mandolin, and guitar. Their debut album, Lofoten Calling, is that rarest of breeds; a folk concept album.

From shanty-inspired rousing tunes, through intricate three-part harmonies and finely arranged, haunting songs, Lofoten Calling displays an acute sense of what's at the heart of the British folk tradition and brings it sailing into the 21st century with an honesty and playfulness that is at once enchanting, touching and irresistible.
