Down The Way highlights the endless talents of this brother and sister as musicians, songwriters and producers. The self-produced album was recorded between England, New York and Australia--from an old sawmill on the riverbanks of Fowey, Cornwall to a studio in Brooklyn, to a water tank in Coolangatta to the streets of London and back to Queens. Down The Way is comprised of 13 tracks that sail across the different realms of musical themes, from folksy charm to epic orchestral grandeur, all the while emphasizing the pair's beautifully subtle harmonies.

Angus & Julia Stone first hit North America in early 2009 with the release of their debut album A Book Like This, co-produced by Fran Healy of Travis. The duo had already captured the hearts of fans and critics alike from Australia to the UK and built a solid tour following with their intimate and bewitching live shows. Upon their arrival in North America, Paste Magazine named Angus & Julia in their "10 New Artists To Watch in 09," and they were featured in the iTunes Indie Spotlight and in other publications like WWD, Glamour, VenusZine and more.

Additionally, influential Los Angeles radio station KCRW invited Angus & Julia to be guests on "Morning Becomes Eclectic;" they were so taken with the pair that they asked them to join their official SXSW showcase alongside Ida Maria and School Of Seven Bells. A Book Like This debuted at #75 on the Billboard Heatseekers Chart, and the pair ended their run in the US by joining Brett Dennen on his spring tour before heading back to Australia and England to finish working on Down The Way.
