The album came to be after the blossoming of a long-term friendship between James Yorkston and Karl- Jonas Winqvist, the Swedish music producer, leader and conductor of The Second Hand Orchestra.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e That communal feeling is apparent across the entire album. Recorded and mixed in Sweden over the course of three days, with a selection of musicians Winqvist had brought together, including Peter Morén (Peter, Bjorn \u0026amp; John), Cecilia Österholm (one of Sweden’s best-known nyckelharpa players), Emma Nordenstam (piano \u0026amp; cello) and Ulrika Gyllenberg (violin).\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e The studio approach with The Second Hand Orchestra was entirely improvised around Yorkston’s songs and the only song they heard in advance was ‘Ella Mary Leather’; Yorkston didn’t want to direct anyone too much but instead allowed for a welcoming, instinctive, free-spirited and joyful atmosphere.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e ‘The Wide, Wide River’ is a soothing, warm and sublime listen whilst also highlighting Yorkston’s skills for songwriting, collaboration and as a musical conductor. The record takes in past loves, advancing age and friends now gone, whilst also containing some of the most sanguine songs Yorkston has ever made.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e CD with printed inner wallet plus 16-page booklet.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e LP in lavish gatefold sleeve with printed inner.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Available to independent retailers on transparent green vinyl in gatefold sleeve with printed inner.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Press - Reviews in Hi-Fi News \u0026amp; Record Review, RnR\/R2, Uncut, Mojo, Loud and Quiet.
