    Album Notes

    With ten stunning songs Mary continues to prove her strength as a songwriter as well as a performer.

    The songs are an eclectic mix of quirky pop, ballads, Celtic folk and sublime ambient, and Mary's vocals are front and centre, rich and clear.

    Mary writes and records with a minumum of fuss at her own studio. She lays down the vocals and instrument tracks and then works with Christian Thomas (partner of her daughter, Jessica Lee Morgan), to mix. He also adds bass guitar where required. Jessica has written the lyrics of one song and contributes guitar and ukulele. Morgan Visconti, Mary's son, adds electric guitar. All three also sing backing vocals here and there.

    Mary also directs the artwork on her albums, photographing, painting or drawing as required, and Jessica assembles the graphics.
