I admit to playing this several times in the last two days! Discovered you at the Black Deer Festival in the UK this June 2023. Two albums later.....Thank you all, your song writing and music fills me with joy. Sadly can't make your September Barbican gig but hoping you will be back over here again soon!
You guys leave room for the beautiful voices from your belly and from your instruments - the sound quality of your videos is superb, as it needs to be. How inspirational, you guys are a North Star for me to follow in my own musical journey. Thanks for the wonderful music!! 🪕🪕🦉🦉
We saw them at the Ryman. I had never heard of them before. It was all amazing, but the second they started playing this song, it was like I was hypnotized. The amplification of the haunting tone bouncing back off of that historic wood.... been a huge fan of them since! :)
