Commenting on the reissue Isobel Campbell says: “I have such fond and special memories of writing and producing this album. Ballad of The Broken Seas is so very dear to my heart and Mark is very much missed.” Originally released in 2006, Ballad Of The Broken Seas has remained a touchstone for fans of folk and Americana, revered for its haunting melodies, rich storytelling, and the captivating interplay between Campbell's ethereal vocals and Lanegan's gravelly baritone. The album was the first in a celebrated trilogy of albums that Isobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan recorded together, being followed by “Sunday at Devil Dirt” in 2008 and “Hawk” in 2010. The album garnered widespread acclaim, with the duo being hailed as a modern day Nancy & Lee, and went on to be shortlisted for the Mercury Prize.
