'Turning the Mind', recorded with Tim Holmes (Death in Vegas) at the Contino Rooms in London, is Maps' second album and follows his Barclaycard Mercury Prize shortlisted debut 'We Can Create' in 2007. Of the album James Chapman aka Maps said in 2009: 'The tracks for this album never seemed to stop flowing from the day I began working on them; it is a true statement of Maps' music at this precise moment'.
