Marble City Skyline
This is a new album of songs written and recorded in Knoxville Tennessee, which also features songs composed back home in England with good friend Phil Baggaley. They were all completed and mixed within sight of the famous Great Smoky Mountains. The initial tracking was completed at Scott Minor’s Wild Chorus studio on 5th Avenue, prior to the additional recording sessions and overdubs. For those who are wondering about the album title, Knoxville is often referred to as the Marble City because of the old marble mining industry. Marble from Knoxville has been used in the construction of many United States landmarks, including Grand Central Station New York.
Grand Central Station New York
On my first trip to New York I got lost downtown and found myself at Grand Central Station. Some of the encounters I had and scenes I observed set me thinking about the stories behind the circumstances. Several years later when writing new songs with Phil Baggaley, in a moment of synchronicity he suggested writing a song with this title. I have always wanted to record it, as it is a firm favourite in my concert set.
The New Born King
In memory of one of the most extraordinary events of World War I, The New Born King (Christmas Truce 1914) remembers the truce which took place on the freezing battlefields of Flanders.

Father Of My Soul
Recorded in Nashville during a writing session in late 2006 at Phil Keaggy's studio, this little song is a meditation on themes from the book of Psalms and the book of Proverbs.

Still Small Voice: Phil Baggaley
Shipwrecks and Islands: Phil Baggaley
During an interview, Adrian Plass summed up the vision behind this recording; "We live in a broken and despairing world, and many of us understandably settle for the safety and familiarity of an established lifestyle. We often close our eyes and ears to devastation in the lives of people around us, be they family, friends, or neighbours". The purpose of Shipwrecks & Islands is not just to provide food for thought, but to offer comfort to those who are experiencing times of trial.
Road to the City: Phil Baggaley
This is the prequel recording project from the popular series of albums featuring the poetry of Adrian Plass and the music and songs of Phil Baggaley, David Clifton and Ian Blythe.

A World of Music: Katie Targett Adams
This beautiful recording showcases some of the songs which have become popular in her live shows around the world, featuring songs in French, Spanish and Chinese, as well as great new arrangements of classic favourites.
I Am The Great Sun: Joanne Hogg
This ancient liturgical poem can be found in St. David's Cathedral Wales, and no one knows the source of the original text.
'Our Lord The Sun' was used in prayer by the early Christian Church up to and including the fifth and sixth centuries, and embodied in the Liturgy until altered to 'Our Lord The God'.
It has also been found on a Norman crucifix of 1632, and an adaptation of the text has been included in an anthology of verse by the English poet Charles Causley. The musical setting was composed by David Clifton after hearing it read during an Oxfordshire Easter Vigil service.
Hush Hush: Katie Targett Adams
Katie’s distinct musical style is rooted in her Scottish ancestry. Her music is a unique blend of angelic vocals, accompanied by her Scottish folk harp, known as the Clarsach.
Long Way Home: Esther Alexander
London songstress Esther Alexander is delighted to be stepping out with a new album entitled The Long Way Home, a record filled with love, life, and charming story telling, enigmatically merged together with smooth, magnetic beats and catchy melodies.
The Lord's My Shepherd (Psalm 23): Joanne Hogg
A beautiful simple guitar and vocal arrangement of this much loved traditional hymn, originally released on the Liturgy Of Time compilation album. In response to the many enquiries we have received from those looking for this song and also Joanne's performance of I Am The Great Sun, we have created a dedicated page for these titles.
