Singles is the second compilation album by English duo Smoke Fairies. It was released in November 2022 ^[1] , on the band's Year Seven Records label.

Background

Smoke Fairies described their compilation as "a sonic journey charting the evolution and artistic exploration of the Smoke Fairies sound". ^[2]

Rough Trade Records mentioned the compilation:- "The band first entered a recording studio to record their debut single 'Living with Ghosts' in 2008. Since then, school friends Jessica Davies and Katherine Blamire have penned and recorded 18 singles as part of their incredible body of work. ^[3]

While compiling the album, the band were reminded that singles "Gastown" and "Riversong" were originally recorded without a music video, something that they decided to resolve by releasing two new animated works by Sophie Graves at Lovely Little Animations. ^[2]

To celebrate the release, on 7th November 2022, Smoke Fairies played a one night only, sell-out gig at Omeara, London. ^[4]

The double-album was released on standard black and limited edition clear vinyl and deluxe edition CD. ^[5]
