The Sand and The Stars is an album by the Bristol-based band Movietone. It was partly recorded on a beach in Cornwall Its intention was to sound 'like a jazz record being played from across the bay'. This was inspired by a review of their previous album ('the blossom filled streets'), which had described their music that way.
