Frore Yarn by The Rowan Amber Mill
An album of tunes for a weird midwinter. New songs for old times, and old songs for even older times. Infused with a spirit of the magic found within nature. Wresting those traditional tunes away from logs burning in a cosy fireplace, and skaters on a frozen pond, to a place where the pre-Christian superstitions / beliefs poke through into another time and another, more unsettling, place.
