Tranmer says of The Echoes on Departure: “I finished previous album “Afternoon Frost” in 2021 - and straight away I could hear the beginnings of the next album. It is different from the previous album; more electronic, but still with some of my favourite chord progressions - and a few new ones. I also felt strongly that this album it needed a voice on two tracks  and was delighted that Constant Follower's Kathleen Stosch provided that voice - and took those tracks beyond my envision.”
