'Whispers' was recorded at the tail end of 2000, and subsequently released early 2001. The album was part of a money raiser, which saw Jules and two friends, Tony Gibbon and John Murphy, undertake a gruelling walk across sections of the Great Wall Of China, in May 2001. Trek China eventually went on to raise many thousands of pounds for the National Deaf Children's Society.

Thanks to...Mike Hamilton and the Nunnery Wood school choir for making 'Big Country' the epic track that it is. Carl Lewis (drums on tracks 1 & 2), Duncan Bloomfield (guitar on track 4), Chris Downton (drums on tacks 4 & 5) and Duke Ashton (for mixing track 1).
