In Love & Light, Heidi Talbot is truly set to shine. After 5 years as lead singer with the Irish-American super group Cherish The Ladies. Talbot extends her talents over a broader, bolder musical canvas, In company with a stellar cast of guest including Eddi Reader, ex-solas guitarist John Doyle, fiddler John McCusker and flute/whistle ace Mike McGoldrick. Drawing on the full, diverse spectrum of influences that inform her singing. In Love & Light complements Talbot's exquisitely expressive, honeyed yet advent voice. Tracks on In Love & Light range from the scottish traditional balled 'Glenlogie' to the vintage Ink Spots hit 'Whispering Grass'; Tom Waits bittersweet classic 'Time' to an old parlor hymn, as well as new new originals by english singer/songwriter Boo Hewerdire, who produced the record. - Joe Parsaca
