Since forming in 2006, singer-songwriter and guitarist Jamie Williams, bassist Owian Kelly, violinist Glenna Larsen and drummer Chris Verney have been patiently and meticulously honing their sound while releasing a series of critically acclaimed singles, picking up fans in Zane Lowe, John Kennedy, and Steve Lamacq along the way.

The result of their fortitude is The Merchant, a truly special debut record. Beautiful and fragile yet uplifting and defiant, The Merchant is a collection of songs that combine the emotional depth associated with art-folk with a pop sensibility that will no doubt appeal to mainstream audiences.

The Merchant contains previous singles Artificial Clouds, Black Heart, Blue Eyes and forthcoming single 23 Fears (Summer '10), released on 1st November, and is available direct off the band's website - http://www.tigersthattalked.co.uk - for only £1 this week. Price will then increase to £2 for the week of 15th Nov.
