Description
Aeolian May combines stirring melodies and lyrics atop a fusion of alternative indie rock, pop and a touch of new age with piano, guitar, sonic textures and percussion. With Aeolian May's first self-produced, self-recorded (and self-released) album you'll embark on a journey of love, redemption, hope, despair and reflection to often mythical, distant or future worlds.
Songwriter and producer James Durham combines the ethereal and moving vocal performance of Danan Healy with the lyrical guitar of Matt Ellison along with synth, piano and string soundscapes that evoke the imagery and messages of a multitude of themes with passion, thoughtfulness, and sometimes a bit of light-hearted adventure and sarcasm.
The angelic yet earthy, hauntingly beautiful voice of Danan Healy singing to James Durham's soulful lyrics is at times reminiscent of Sarah McLachlan, with a twist of Suzanne Vega and Loreena McKennitt. You can occasionally hear overtones of the purity of Olivia Newton John's voice (gasp!) but with a completely different style. Recorded on a (literally) shoestring budget in conditions that would make a big studio laugh, this collection of songs hints at great things to come from this talented musical team. Saturated with profound messages, then complimented by the right balance of airy upbeat sound, this album is sure to be an independent classic.
