Following on from the outstanding 2015 release ‘Still” This is more of the same quality & substance. All tracks are quiet, peaceful & elegant. Piano, violin & cello, with a sprinkle of electronica.
Like: Anni Hogan, Francis McDonald, Ruhe
All good. Love 1,3,7,11
No FCC’s (Instrumentals)

1) Glide (2.08) Soft & subtle with restrained edgy electronica.
2) Of A Feather (2.08) Lovely blend of the instruments & effects.
3) Rafters (2.30) Could be bird song in the background with the rattling chains – Or a squeaky chair…either way – Glorious.
4) Watcher (1.52) Tea pot lids clacking away in harmony with the piano.
5) Duo (3.26) Soundtrack like, mood setting.
6) Flutter (1.47) Slightly more energetic. Like spring.
7) Flying South (4.08) Moody & beautiful. (ends 8 seconds early)
8) Head Cut Off (1.13) Bare bones.
9) Nesting (4.05) Atmospheric piano & samples.
10) Caged (1.56) Effected piano.
11) Skitter (3.04) Quiet drone with the piano.
12) Twin Crested Peaks (2.19) The optimism shines through.
13) Albatross (3.52) A stark conclusion.
