Product Information

A Northern View is the 2nd album from Arborist. Recorded at Real World Studios it is an album of pastoral themes and bleak truths from the north of Ireland. ARBORIST released their debut album Home Burial in November 2016 to critical acclaim. UNCUT 8/10 »A staggering debut of depth and substance«, **** The Guardian »A Man of My Age feels like an instant classic« and **** Mojo »A deliciously self-assured collection.«

It was recorded in Peter Gabriel's Real World Studios in Wiltshire and is a reflection on what it is to reside at around 55 degrees north on planet Earth. An album of pastoral themes and curious love songs, underpinned by the unique violin playing of Emma Smith (Seamus Fogarty, James Yorkston, Noel Gallagher, Jarvis Cocker). Since the release of their debut single »Twisted Arrow« in 2015, Arborist have become somewhat cult properties, thanks in no small part to KIM DEAL (The Breeders, Pixies) contributing delicate harmonies to the song. A nonchalant and thoughtful piece of Americana, conceived in Belfast, it premiered on Stereogum and The Line of Best Fit with extensive play on BBC 6 Music. It was also featured in The Guardian's tracks of the week.
