The EP is made of a succession of short spontaneous vocal pieces - the ‘songs’. Using invented language and a very broad spectrum of vocal techniques and musical influences from across the planet, we aim to recreate how humans might have made music as part of the fabric of their ordinary life and rituals, before music and singing became cultural commodities. 

​

Each ‘song’ is a voice and movement vignette, creating different configurations in space and sound. The shapes are universal, archetypal. We sing aspects of the natural world, the elements, songs of work, protection, mourning, celebration, healing, lullaby and prayer.
