From the great whales of the deep to the old oaks of the land, the future of the natural world is now inextricably bound to that of mankind and many of the songs we are attracted to, or attracted to crafting, explore the relationship between humanity and nature. The human compulsion to conquer and collect the natural world has come at an untold price, to the detriment of almost every species on Earth. Yet, for all our destructiveness we also capture nature in our art, music & song. One of our most natural compulsions as a species – that noise-making as organic as birdsong – has become not only a vehicle for feelings, but also for ideas...
“Absolutely beautiful... the three of them together make an absolutely wonderful sound..." – Mike Harding
