Last year we prepared for the publication of the book Wyrd Kalendar...
This year we are making ready an album of the same name...
This new album will contain 13 tracks - 12 of which will be related to the stories from the book and the month of the year. The album will be released by the very groovy Mega Dodo (who released Songs from the Black Meadow in 2016). All profits from the album will go to charity.
The artists have been given a month each, a copy of the linked story and Andy Paciorek's picture to give them a starting point and away they go!
We are very proud to reveal that the artist for March is the incredible Emily Jones who has created a track based on the month of March and the story "The Crucified Hare". We worked with Emily Jones on Songs from the Black Meadow in 2016 in which she created the haunting "Dark Moss and Coldheart".
More information about the album and our other monthly artists will be released throughout 2018...
On Saturday 12th May Emily Jones is running A Spring Symposium in Salisbury which will include performances from Lake of Puppies, Kemper Norton and Emily herself as well as many others... In the meantime enjoy the current album from Emily Jones entitled "Autumn Eye". Once you have listened to that check out the album and wider experience of "The Book of the Lost" which the Active Listener reviewed a few years ago. Visit her website here and immerse yourself further... Revel in the haunting brilliance of Emily Jones...
