His last solo album for Beggars, Cascade came after a time of change for Peter Murphy. He had dissolved his long-time backing band and moved to Turkey with his family. After a year of soul-searching and re-discovery, the songs flowed.
The album was written with Paul Statham and produced by Pascal Gabriel. It also contains guitar work by noted artist Michael Brook.
The four bonus tracks added to Cascade are Mercy Rain (production rough mix), Gliding Like A Whale (backing track), Sail on White (backing track), and Wish (backing track).
