The Wyrd Kalendar Album - August Artist - Icarus Peel

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 August is the deeply groovy psychedelic god Icarus Peel who has created a track based on the month of August and the story "The Weeping Will Walk".

Icarus Peel has been leading West-country psych sensations The Honey Pot and writing songs for Crystal Jacqueline for several years. Somehow, he's also found time to record several solo albums including Tea at My Gaffe, Sunflower Army and Sing!!. His first two albums have distinct flavours of their own. Tea at My Gaffe is a collection of mainly shorter, idiosyncratic songs with an obviously English flavour, while Sunflower Army blends a big rock sounds with a more rustic feel.

His most recent album is "The Window On The Side of Your Head". Released by MegaDodo this work contains a sound that is "deep, groove ridden and loud."

More information about the album and our other monthly artists will be released throughout 2018...
