"Lines is a trilogy of song cycles inspired by poetry.
The lines were mostly turned into song by Unthanks pianist Adrian McNally and performed and arranged by Rachel and Becky Unthank, with other Unthank regulars and guests including Sam Lee and Tim Dalling.
Ranging from 21 to 33 minutes long, these records are longer than the EP, shorter than Long Players, these records are, if you will, Medium Players. We hope you enjoy them.

The lines for part one were written by Maxine Peake and originally featured in a site specific theatre event about the Hull triple trawler disaster in which 58 men lost their lives.

The lines for part two are predominately taken from poems and letters from World War One.

The lines for part three features the poems of Emily Brontë, turned into song, written and recorded on her original piano."
