Skyline is an album credited solely to Steve Howe; however, the album is performed by the duo of Howe and Paul Sutin. This is the third album to feature this duo after both Seraphim (1989) and Voyagers (1995) were credited as 'Paul Sutin with Steve Howe'. The music is usually very calm and simple, which is not conventional for Howe. As Howe said in an interview, [3] "You go through the music; there's something, there's some little thread that carries through them, and that's certainly true with this album, but the only thing is because of the mood of the music and sort of relaxness of the music, it's been harder for me to actually create the spiral that I'm trying to create."
