Arcane Rising is the second album by The Story, the acclaimed duo comprising Martin Welham (leader of acid folk legends, Forest) and his multi-instrumentalist son, Tom. Written and recorded in the depths of the English countryside, like its predecessor Tale Spin (2005), it's a partly improvised and consistently melodic song cycle that's sure to appeal to fans of Devendra Banhart, Joanna Newsom and Espers as well as older names like Donovan, The Incredible String Band and C.O.B.

Sunbeam is delighted to announce the debut album from Sommerset-based The Story, a duo comprising Martin Welham (long-lost leader of psych-folk legends Forest) and his son Tom Welham. Having quietly played together for several years, they recently collaborated with leading US alt-folk act Whysp on a limited edition vinyl LP, The Dawn Is Crowned (which appeared to rapturous reviews in October 2005) and have at last prepared a full-length collection of their material. Tale Spin is a delightfully melodic and nuanced collection of psych-tinged acoustic pop, written and recorded in the depths of the English countryside, and sure to appeal to fans of acts such as Devendra Banhart, Joanna Newsom and Espers as well as older names such as the Incredible String Band, COB and Vashti Bunyan.
