We are thrilled that the estate of renowned photographer Saul Leiter has generously agreed to allow Caoimhín and Thomas to use his seminal photograph ‘Snow’ (1960) for the album cover. It is an image which has long resonated with both Thomas and Caoimhín and provides a visual centrepiece for the album.

Taking a lead from the Saul Leiter photograph, the physical release of the album will also include photographs and design elements by Caoimhín.

Highly regarded for their work together as part of The Gloaming —and individually with the likes of Laurie Andersen, Garth Knox, Sufjan Stevens and St. Vincent— Bartlett and Ó Raghallaigh are two of the most celebrated talents making contemporary music today. They have confirmed two live shows in support of the album, so far.
