’On Reflection' celebrates 25 years of Kathryn Roberts and Sean Lakeman making music together. For their Silver Anniversary the couple decided to re-visit a selection of songs from their career to date. Recording at their studio on Dartmoor they re-interpreted numbers from their early days in folk supergroup 'Equation' as well as their time as a duo evolving from respected interpreters of traditional material to the praised songwriters they have become today. With a nod to their past but with eyes firmly set on the future ‘On Reflection’ balances perfectly where this much loved duo have come from and where they choose to set their musical course together.

Our fifth studio Album 'Personae' is an eclectic emotional see-saw of a journey, melding traditional ballads with our own self-penned material.

"An album by turns curious, thought-provoking, moving and magical – a complete cornucopia astutely delivered by one of the most intriguing, uninhibited and popular duos on the British folk scene."

Highlights include a much requested version of Sandy Denny's song 'Solo', a rollicking Child Ballad 'The Knights Ghost' featuring Sam Kelly of 'The Lost Boys' Fame on guest vocals, and Lakeman sibling Seth guesting on the country tinged 'Old,Old,Old'.
