Reviews and stuff

Stevewarnerfolk has a new album out - The Corran Ferry which is now available in CD format as well as download.

The album consists of 9 original songs that were writing by Steve Warner, arranged by Phil Sheldrake and produced by Dan Wilde of Gladeside recordings..

I really like the bright feel to the arrangements and production on this recording giving a really fresh contemporary feel, full of vivid colour. With Steve's excellent voice taking care of lead vocals, he has a full band backing him up throughout the album, adding plenty of light and shade to his songs, including electric and acoustic guitars, bass, drums, cello and brass.

The Broken Man opens the album and has a lovely melody that draws and holds attention throughout. Indeed, there is not a weak track on the album with variety of styles and tempos. Another highlight is the title track, The Corran Ferry which has an epic feel to it and has a lovely instrumental outtro.

The Corran Ferry is an album deserving of a wide audience and is, for me, Steve's best work to date with very accessible songs that make you want to go back and hear again. Keith Banche
