Time to Fall

'Time to Fall', Karen's long awaited, second solo album, was released in May 2002.
On 'Time to Fall' she adds a new dimension to the voice that has won Capercaillie so many fans worldwide (and resulted in 1 million album sales) - bringing a new depth to some outstanding contemporary material.

There is a cool sophistication about the album, thanks in part, to some exceptional material, half of it written by James Grant, whom many believe to be Scotland's most talented songwriter.

The colaboration with James that began on 'The Dreaming Sea' and his distinctive, soulful music and lyrics make a deep impression on the album.
In addition to six James Grant tracks there are songs by Donald Shaw, Paul McGeechan and Bobby Henry.

Two Gaelic songs and one traditional Robert Burns composition add yet more diversity to the album.
