	Tales from the Barrel House – Album 2011. Honour Oak Records (self-release) After parting ways with record label Relentless/EMI Seth returned to self-recording and release with his 2011 album. The album was initially billed as a limited release on just 10,000 copies offered exclusively through independent folk/acoustic distributor ProperMusic. It sold out within weeks. In April 2012 the album was therefore re-issued as a general, unlimited release as a double-disc CD+DVD and download. A vinyl release finally followed in November 2012. For completists, the DVD contains interviews and music video ‘More Than Money’ while iTunes offers two exclusive bonus tracks: ‘Another Long Night’ and ‘Cooper’s Hands’.
