History

In early 2008, Herbert was commissioned by a collaborative project between Peter Gabriel and Bowers & Wilkins to record an acoustic album at Gabriel's Real World Studios. [2] The result of these sessions – Ten Lives – was released as a digital download in July 2008, [3] available only from the Bowers & Wilkins website as part of their Music Club. The music was later made available for downloading from other music websites. [1]

Remixed versions of these songs, all written by Herbert, formed the basis of her 2009 album All the Ghosts . [4]
