Kathryn Williams & Neill MacColl release “Come With Me” as a first single from their forthcoming ‘Two’ album on 25th February, 2008. “Come With Me” is a spine-tingling, intimate and beguiling song where two people “taken by the tide way out to sea, past the friends that we used to be”, spend the night wondering if they should go further.

Kathryn and Neill first met at the Daughters of Albion concert (part of the BBC’s Folk Britannia season) where they had been paired to perform “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face”, a song which Neill’s father, Ewan MacColl, wrote for his mother, Peggy Seeger. “We just clicked, we didn’t need to say anything on stage, we could read where the other was going” recalls Kathryn; “within a few hours of first saying ‘hello’ to each other, we were saying ‘yeah, lets get together and make a record’ … which was both strange and kind of liberating.”

The pair have announced a special ‘iTunes Live’ show to take place at Air Studios on Friday 22nd February.

Prior to this show they’ll play warm-up shows in the Orkneys and Highlands:

February 2008

7th Inverness, Eden Court
8th Stornaway, Woodlands Centre
9th Ullapool, The Ceildh Place

The album ‘Two’ is released through Caw on 3rd March, 2008.
