The second Pocketbooks album is a mix of bright harmonies, shimmering guitars, gorgeous violins and beautiful storytelling. During the winter of 2010, the band gathered in the basement underneath a ukulele shop in east London”s Brick Lane, and played songs late into the night. It would have been a wintry record anyway, but the snow and the dark nights definitely played their part. The band were joined by the violin section of A Little Orchestra (set up by The Pipettes” maestro Monster Bobby) who added some warmth and sadness in equal measure. The album was recorded by Simon Trought, who has also produced The Wave Pictures, Allo Darlin”, Fanfarlo and Darren Hayman.
