Assembled & recorded in a small village in the Vosges hills in Frances, Marianne Schuppe treats us to 3 new tracks brought to life by her voice, a lute and uber bows. Shared with an eerie, spine-tingling intimacy, Marianne's ghost-like presence feels like she's sharing her own headspace with the aural world, conjuring songs stripped to their bare components. Each folk song, refrain and lament - presented in a mixture of English & German - carries with it a malleable weight that seems to suck the air around it into a vacuum, rupturing space and capturing a sepia-soaked moment in time. A tender, precious release by a singular artist.
