Launched in 2016, in an exhibition of Chris Gollon's paintings partially inspired by the songs on it, Eleanor McEvoy's album's concept was inspired by a Chris Gollon painting she had bought, entitled 'Champagne Sheila'. This album was the first stage of the two-year exercise in artistic boundary crossing McEvoy and Gollon enjoyed. In the design of the sleeve, four Chris Gollon paintings are used, one of which is entitled 'Dreaming of Leaving', which in turn inspired Eleanor McEvoy to write the song 'Gimme Some Wine', which she dediacets to Chris Gollon. 'NAKED MUSIC: The Songbook' was published later the same year, in which Gollon and McEvoy are interviewed about their collaborative work, with a foreword by music writer and author Jackie Hayden.
