Feel the pull
More sunshine
So profound
Feeling fine
Edify me
Domestically
Do you fear you?
Are you free?
How am I supposed to know
Is where I'm planted good to sow?
I step outside to bold alarms
I breathe in air that borders red
I dream I'm in Grandmother's arms
I'm dreaming that the dream ain't dead
(Dream ain't dead)
I look at crumbling pillars:
How do I avoid this?
So many orbits 'round the suns of others
These unsung talents sung by mothers
And souls ascend because of colour
'Lost more lives beyond my own
Let's be real, we die alone
I wake up fighting for that little light
I see through lies inside my head
I saunter through this morning fog
Daydreaming that the dream ain't dead
And it's hard, to admit when you are failing;
to admit that night ship sailing represents your part
Hardened, as I'm gifted words of wisdom;
Like an aphoristic biscuit that I'll sure discard
I make the pledge to see this through
I vow to see it to the end
I know that we are not alone
In dreaming --
In knowing that the dream ain't dead
There's life and laughter I've misread
Bloom where you are planted,
Sow seeds of joy

A stellar singer-songwriter. She inspires much of my musical DNA. This album creeps up on you in the best way. Recommended for rainy day listening. Sacha Mullin

Brilliant union of early music and rock. Strong Cardiacs vibes. I find a lot of chamber rock to be meandering and aimlessly angular. However this stuff is different, the compositions are extremely tight and diverse. The instrumentation is sparse and rickety, but has these brilliant flashes of grandiose orchestration, it's very balanced. I don't think I've heard a more successful integration of early music into modern forms before. Absolutely a modern masterpiece of progressive "weird" music. impressivelad
The latest album from the Swedish-American composer is the musical life force behind the "Trover Saves the Universe" video game. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 25, 2020
Buoyant vocals and a varied palette of synths work in perfect tandem to create gorgeous art-pop that's able to address big realities. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 2, 2019
