Such is his status, Q Music says of the award winning musician who came to prominence in 2006 with debut album Black Water: “Drever’s voice and guitar form a part of the backbone of today’s contemporary roots and folk scene.”
Since the release of his lauded 2020 album Where The World Is Thin, Kris has been busy playing major shows with Julie Fowlis, Karine Polwart, Sekou Keita and Jackie Morris for their Lost Spell Songs project, duetted with Aoife O’Donovan and toured with Aidan O’Rourke and Martin Green as pioneering folk trio Lau, before returning to the studio in early 2023 to record the new songs for his latest offering, an anthology album.
The 36-track compilation LP features new songs Catterline, Punchbag and Dust In Light whilst collecting together key songs from previous solo albums including Black Water, Mark The Hard Earth, If Wishes Were Horses and Where The World Is Thin, alongside choice cuts from his collaborations and recordings with Lau.
