Hello lovely people, hope you have been poping by and looking at the rather splendind reviews 'Collecting Skies' has been receiveing. We are bowled over , much like a gnome when the kids are playing cricket in the garden( spurious reference but it ws in the title so I had to have a go;-)). If you haven't got yours yet www.bigiam.com is the place to shop:-) We have a lovely gig in Mellow Mellow Liverpool this Friday, the rather splending Orwell are starting off their uk tour and will get to meet the splendid Snippet too..yay. The green man, oh yes..,rather rashly we have entered a competion to open up the glorious green man festival. If you are on face book please vote for us. We are in the top 10 but need to be in the top 5 to go into the next round. Here is a link for you.

"Hypnotic and yearningly beautiful on the splendid Folkwit Records " Tom Robinson, BBC Six Music
"The Big I Am is quite a name for a band to live up to. "Collecting Skies" implies garnering something mere mortals can only inspire to, something that pushes the envelope almost beyond breaking point. It's a big album, loud, brash, beautifully arranged and orchestrated. This is an album that comes with a wealth of riches. If it was just an instrumental album, that would be enough for many, but only until you hear the narrative, which is of the quality that it could be delivered in a flat monotone and still hold your interest. An album of many parts, bolted together to perfection." Neil King, fatea Magazine
"a debut album of poise, strength and the most vociferous magnificence. The Big I Am sound absolutely confident and joyful in their creativity. Collecting Skies could be the soundtrack to snows melting and spring emerging. Songs open like a new dawn breaking and hang like blossoms from fragile branches of beauty; then they grow and grow until they are bursting at the seams with catharsis. If you listen to this album, be prepared to have your heartstrings plucked and stroked until you ache with joy and any cyisism you harbour is utterly defeated. Be prepared to be lifted." ***** (5 stars) " Eddy Cooney, Rock'n'Reel Magazine
