Since forming in 2005 – Alberta Cross have toured with Mumford & SonsPortugal. The ManNeil YoungThem Crooked Vultures (David Grohl, Josh Homme and John Paul Jones) and Rag N’ Bone Man to name a few, performed on TV around the world including The Late Show with David Letterman and Last Call with Carson Daly, had tracks featured in multiple US hit TV series (Million Little Pieces, Sons of Anarchy, Californication) and released six previous albums. Now back in the UK, Petter will be promoting the new album in the UK and across Europe throughout 2023, with US dates to come.

‘Sinking Ships’ was written mostly at the legendary The Wool Hall in Frome Somerset with Petter’s long term producer and collaborator, Luke Potashnick – Luke recently bought and renovated The Wool Hall (legendary in part due to Van Morrisson and Tears for Fears recording albums there).

He comments on the making of ‘Glow In The Dark’, “One of the main parts of the song came from Petter singing this hi soaring melody at the top of one his vocal takes – before long, we re-enforced it with a cutting guitar and MS20 synth.  Drums again were played by Tom the Lion – his parts weaving and repeating between the sections.  And Petter played my old Yacht Piano – which I found fitting considering the ‘lost at sea’ lyric”.
