Golden Fable

Ancient Blue


Hailing from North Wales, Golden Fable are Rebecca Palin, Tim McIver & Jack McCarthy. They released their debut album 'Star Maps' in 2012, an album constructed from electronic beats, synths and processed effects alongside guitars, pianos and strings resulting in "an incredibly gorgeous dream pop collection" (In Your Speakers). Recorded in Snowdonia with David Wrench (Bat for Lashes/Caribou) and Jimmy Robertson (Anna Calvi), Ancient Blue is an impassioned, more intense and bolder recording than its predecessor. On Ancient Blue, Golden Fable move between the heart-wrenching stillness of Low or Dead Can Dance and the textural electronica of The Album Leaf or M83, with Rebecca Palin's vocals drawing comparisons with Cocteau Twins' Liz Frazer. Golden Fable's haunting sounds have entranced crowds at The End of the Road and Green Man festivals this summer, whilst new single Breathe has already received airplay from the likes of Gideon Coe, Tom Robinson and Radcliffe & Maconie. What they said about their first album: 'enchanting and haunting, there is something almost otherworldly about the sound they produce' - Clash magazine, 'Boy this is good, brilliant' Tom Robinson, 'Beautiful' Guy Garvey, Elbow
