Info for WE WERE MADE PREY

Kathryn Joseph releases her fourth album We Were Made Prey.

Continuing her creative partnership with 2022’s for you who are the wronged producer Lomond Campbell, recording took place in the remote Black Bay Studios on the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides. We Were Made Prey. dances on the knife-edge: of action versus inaction, of want versus wanting, of self-fulfilment versus shame. Kathryn's fourth album is both a reaction to and reprieve for the animal within. Eleven songs that accept her whole being, with all its hunger, lust and rage, and its devastating tenderness too.

Kathryn Joseph
Indie folk singer-songwriter Kathryn Joseph’s debut, bones you have thrown me and blood I’ve spilled won Scottish Album of the Year in 2015. The Inverness-born artist creates dreamy melodies, transporting listeners with beguiling soundscapes of piano, harmonium and voice; a visceral, often melancholy blend of poetry and wistful refrains. Hers is a delicate, otherworldly sound, drawing comparisons to Joanna Newsom, Kate Bush or Anohni while remaining utterly unique and conjuring up cinematic visions of Scottish landscapes and raw emotions.

Besides her solo work, Joseph has featured on an album by virtuoso guitarist RM Hubbert, written a soundtrack for a National Theatre of Scotland play and collaborated with James Graham of post-punk band The Twilight Sad on Out Lines, a community storytelling programme in Glasgow’s Easterhouse. Open to exploring other artforms beside music, Joseph also toured a poignantly staged, live theatrical adaptation of her 2018 second album, from when i wake the want is.

"...Kathryn Joseph continues to excel at both the light and the dark without ever being grey" (The Skinny)
