Description
2011 album from this duo, members of one of Brit Folk's most revered families, the Waterson's. Marry and Oliver have an intuitive partnership but it was a long time in gestation before the sudden explosion of beautiful, evocative, mysterious songs which have blossomed on their debut album together, hence the Days That Shaped Me is an album born of circumstance rather than design. 'Yolk Yellow Legged' was co-written by James Yorkston, who also duets with Marry on the track, while Kathryn Williams (who, like Yorkston, performed at the 2007 Lal tribute concert) co-wrote 'Father Us' and 'Secret Smile', singing harmonies on both. Marry and Olly's cousin Eliza Carthy is also prominent, playing fiddle on a couple of tracks and singing lead on 'The Loosened Arrow', while Reuben Taylor's piano adds further textures, notably setting the winsome, McGarrigle-esque tone of 'Run to Catch a Kiss'.
