Wake, The – A Light Far Out
A limited vinyl edition of A Light Far Out, the fifth album by The Wake. Just 500 copies were pressed to mark Record Store Day on 20 April 2013.
Re-emerging with well-received live shows in Brussels, London, Paris and New York, core duo Caesar (guitar, bass and vocals) and Carolyn Allen (keyboards and vocals) recorded A Light Far Out with producers Ian Catt (St Etienne), Duncan Cameron (Teenage Fanclub) and remixer Drew Diver of NYC-based duo Horse Shoes.
“Really it’s been a process of rediscovery,” explained Caesar. “After getting back together to play the Factory Night at Plan K in Brussels in 2009, then going on to play a few more gigs, we set about making a fifth album. Hopefully it combines elements from our past recordings with our more recent work as The Occasional Keepers – to create something that resonates in the present day.”
