North of the Moon: Three Australian Faerie Bards
Introducing our new digital album at Bandcamp

In Tree Time, three Celtic-Australian minstrels united to bring you some of their most fairytalish songs. Together they wove music with myth and fairytale. Instruments on this collection include flute, mandolin, accordion, charango, guitars, harps and bardic vocals, from folklorists honed in storytelling, mythology, poetry and Druidic / Pagan / Fae paths.

The Mermaids by Ferdinand Leeke, 1921

From Druidic circles to taverns, carnivals, fey indie labels, fairy shops, storytelling guilds, castles and audiobook soundtracks, they've fostered links between folklore and eco-spirituality. Hailing from three States of Australia, they joined webs at the Equinox, north of the moon. Let these whimsical balladeers carry you through seas and groves of Faery lands.

'Under the Dock Leaves' by Richard Doyle, 1878

'The Children of Lir'
by John Duncan, 1914

'In a time of bards and chieftains,
when the bright ones walked the land
And beauty slipped from silver strings
touched by a minstrel’s hand
In a time when giants held the hills
and stone circles rang with song
And the Lia Fail stood in the soil
and Tara’s walls stood strong.'

- from 'The Children of Lir' by Adrienne Piggott

'The Hesperides'
by Arthur Rackham, 1913

'The Garden of Hesperides'
by Edward Burne-Jones, 1877

'Crystal drops and dragon stones are hidden in the maze
The green isle of apples awaits your longing gaze'
