Old Low Light is Kathryn Williams' third album, released on EastWest Records on 30 September 2002.[1] The Guardian newspaper regarded it as a disappointing follow-up to the Mercury-nominated Little Black Numbers[2] with The Independent suggesting Williams "applies a subtle measured approach to songs whose ambiguities linger long after they have finished".[3] The track "Old Low Light #2" does not appear on this album but is on her fifth album release, 'Over Fly Over'.
