"Mudlarking" is the 1st single from West Of Eden's upcoming historical concept album, "Whitechapel". The song is a mandolin- and guitar-driven folk rock gem that transports us back to what is often described as 'hell on earth'. London in the 1880's!

'Mudlarks' were children who, in the Thames' foul waters, searched for bits of coal, copper nails, and pieces of rope they could sell to scrape together a meal. It was tough and dirty, but unlike many others at that time, 'Mudlarks' at least lived a free life.

"Mudlarking" and the entire album, West Of Eden's 13th, was mixed in Edinburgh by Cameron Malcolm and mastered by Calum Malcolm, a legend known for his work on classic albums with artists such as The Blue Nile, Prefab Sprout, and Mark Knopfler.

The album, "Whitechapel", will be released on March 15th, 2024.
