Actress Amanda Abbington performed in the official video that accompanied the release of The Exit Song, a single from the album.[1] The video was directed by Jamie Freeman (brother of actor Martin Freeman)[12] and Stevie Freeman,[24] who run the Union Music store in Lewes, East Sussex.[13] Their second album, The Morning Key, was released on 25 May 2014. The album's title comes from a song by Jones, "Broad Woolly Back", written about his emotional experiences following the death of his father. The album was produced by Al Scott, better known for his work with The Levellers. In a review for Folk Radio UK, Paul Woodgate said that the album "strikes for the heart and head and succeeds on both counts...If you like Rusby, the Wailin’ Jenny's and Cara Dillon, add this to your 'must listen' list".[14] Iain Hazlewood, for Spiral Earth, said: "The combination of mandolin, banjo, bass and fiddle is nigh on perfect, the songs have space to grow but they know exactly when to roll with it."[15] The band's first EP, Climb the Air, was released on 15 April 2016.
