This was followed by Family Album (Basta 2013), A Tree Fell And Other Songs (Great Waters 2015) and Estranged (2018), all produced by Kramer and all critically praised in Europe and abroad. The sixth album Fire Place was produced by Dusty Stray co-collaborator Stuart Cullen and released on December 1, 2023.
