Reviews

'soundtracks for otherworld movies' Andrew Darlington - RnR 'a captivating album’s worth of skilful, atmospheric and powerful harp pieces'

Marc Higgins FATEA

'the composition is varied and distinctive'

Adrien Jones Folk LOndon

this album works on many levels: as a collection of new compositions, as a performance full of energy and emotion, and as a cathartic cry in the wilderness for anyone who wants to join in!
