The Unthanks - Songs of Robert Wyatt & Antony & the Johnsons (CD)

Facts 2011 live release from the critically acclaimed British Folk group. It was December 2010 when The Unthanks staged a concert that was at once both fun and their most daunting project yet. Over two sold out nights at the Union Chapel, London, their exploration of music by Antony & the Johnsons and Robert Wyatt was an irreverent joy, making the Independent's Gigs of the Year list. Those London shows are now captured on a live album, and to mark it's release. The album is the first volume in what will be a series of Unthank albums called Diversions. The series is designed to capture and document a prolific twelve months which has been full of unique projects for the Mercury nominated Tynesiders.
