Hannah Peel - Mary Casio: Journey to Cassiopeia
This product is available on Pre-order.
Hannah Peel’s third album, originally released in September 2017, is a
seven-movement odyssey composed for analogue synthesizers and traditional 29-piece
colliery brass band.
Mary Casio: Journey to Cassiopeia, which is being re-issued on 31 October, 2025 via
Real World Records, explores one person's journey to outer space, by recounting the
story of an unknown, elderly, pioneering, electronic musical stargazer and her lifelong
dream to leave her terraced home in the mining town of Barnsley, South Yorkshire, to
see Cassiopeia for herself.
The brass band and rhythm section – ‘Tubular Brass’ - features the top UK championship
brass band players who were recorded live on location in The Barnsley Civic Theatre
with Peter Gabriel’s Real World studio team. These recordings were then expertly
combined with Peel’s detailed, analogue synth layered production to create a wholly
unique, collaborative sound; a first of its kind both live and on record.
The re-issue comes with updated artwork by original designer, Grammy award winning,
Jonathan Barnbrook (David Bowie collaborator on albums ‘Blackstar’ and ‘The Next Day’)
and remastered audio on Berry-coloured vinyl.
