2012 release, the fifth solo album from one of Scotland's most celebrated and loved singer/songwriters. The album was produced by Iain Cook (one half of Glasgow band The Unwinding Hours). Supported by her two regular touring collaborators, brother Steven Polwart (guitars/vocals) and Fair Islander Inge Thomson (accordion, percussion and vocals), Polwart's own direct musical contribution to Traces has expanded beyond her usual acoustic guitars to include Indian harmonium, floor percussion, and even modest use of field recordings. Throughout the album this core trio is sympathetically augmented by producer Cook on piano, keys and percussion, and by judicious use of guest musicians on tuned percussion and horns
