About The Tide That Left and Never Came Back

The Runaway Found is the Veils debut album, released on 16 February 2004. The record was preceded by several singles, from "More Heat Than Light" to "The Wild Son". The last single "Lavinia" was released in November 2003, alongside a first promotional version of the album which featured a different running order and track list. In fact "...& One of Us Must Go" and "Wires to Flying Birds" did not make the final version and were later replaced by "The Wild Son" and "The Valleys of New Orleans". Because of its long gestation the record has three different producers: Matthew Ollivier, Bernard Butler and Ken Nelson. The fourth song on the set, "More Heat Than Light", gives credits to Finn's father Barry Andrews as co-author. According to the booklet notes the last song of the set, "The Nowhere Man", is taken from the 1954 novel by C.S. Lewis "The Horse and His Boy". The song "Vicious Traditions" was featured during the end credits of the 2007 film Mr. Brooks.
