Pulling Back the Night

Shimmering in a heat haze and beaching on Merseyside’s shores between gently lapping waves, Sundowners return with album Pulling Back The Night. Five becomes two as original members, Fiona Skelly and Niamh Rowe returning to write together for the pure joyof creating and hearing the voices of one and the other, the call was also heard by the friends who rallied to join them. Their third long-player, one sculpted in collaborative spirit with Paul Weller, Steve Craddock and members of The Coral. The seas of time can cut coldly into relationships with every tide, but the creative pull of Skelly and Rowe towards each other, compelled by memories of time together and forced time apart, is a force beyond either’s reckoning.  Written and recorded around the Wirral, Liverpool and Surrey, and mixed by James Skelly, a sense of beautiful yearning pervades the free-flowing alt-folk of Pulling Back The Night, moored in choppy waters at the confluence of pain and joy.

The 2nd limited edition of Sundowners 3rd album Pulling Back The Night album arrives on black heavyweight vinyl for superior sound quality and alternative colour album cover on reverse board.  The album features collaborations with Paul Weller, Clean Cut Kid, Steve Craddock, James Skelly and Paul Molloy recorded at Paul Weller's Black Barn studio and Parr Street Liverpool.
