The songs on this CD, all written by Sharon and Thorn, are delivered with a passion that conveys their love of nature's cycles beautifully. Both women sing and they are accompanied by a choir, guitar, mandola and lots of percussion.
The chants themselves are easy to learn, and are presented by Sharon and Thorn as an offering for all those who celebrate the treturn of the sun and the turning of the year.
This is a companion CD to Songs for the Waning Year.
Sharon Knight and T. Thorn Coyle have been friends for many years, sharing since an early age the conviction that Nature and her mighty forces are worthy of worship.
Over the years, their lives have taken separate paths, Sharon expressing her love of myth and magic through a series of music projects, and Thorn becoming a renowned author and teacher in the Pagan tradition.
In the last few years their twisting paths have crossed again, and they have decided to mingle their life's work in the form of these 2 recordings.
T. Thorn Coyle is the author of 2 books, Evolutionary Witchcraft and Kissing the Limitless. She is a sought-after teacher in the Anderson Feri tradition and travels the world teaching Pagan spirituality. She also happens to have a fantastic voice and a strong musical sensibility.
Sharon Knight is a career musician and multi-media artist. She is a founding member of the band Pandemonaeon, the alternative record label, Trance Jam Records, and the film/audio production company El Mundo Bueno Studios.
