    A modern folk album inspired by graveyards, sea shanties and spaghetti western ride outs. A shadowy voice tells bittersweet stories of love and death to a soundtrack, composed with both traditional instruments and subtle electronics, somewhere between Appalachian folk-rock and a Morricone musical.

lyrics

High on a hill, my heart stay there still, A cold wind knows me well, it saves me from myself. And I'll be alone when night falls and the world will be lovely no more. Far, far from my view, I left a piece of me with you. The dawns light dies renew, but dawn will not bring back you. And I'll be alone when night falls, and the world will be lovely no more. My soul is a dark and distant call, and home is a place that I mourn.
