"On My Way Home" is the second album from Shadowfields (Humphrey-McKeown) and released in 2013. This album was a continuation of performing songs they had written for other artist along with a new crop of songs written just for themselves. The "Swamp-Grass" guitar playing showed up again in songs like "Oh, What Kind of Love" and harmonica was also added to the tonal pallet. Once again, it weaves it's way through many styles from the crowd favorite "A Misfit" to the haunting closing song, "On My Way Home".
"Great tunes appear to come naturally to them, and their songs invariably come loaded with plentiful hooks and the kind of choruses that stick around. There’s variety too, from the classic folk-rock of “Chandler's Crossing”, the retro Brill Building poptones of “Page One” to the timeless country picking that underpins “A Misfit”. Yet, thanks to their excellent vocals, the album remains resolutely and consistently their own, and does all that’s required to potentially earn a considerable audience and much radio play. Fingers crossed it happens for them." ~ Leicester Bangs, UK
