Latest Release

Hemlock Honey and Crows (Deluxe)

8 original release + 8 solo mix tracks

Hemlock Honey and Crows is an album of songs for the season - my favourite season! Songs of storms, spells and hauntings. Wild gardens and those who plant them. Death, healing and magic. Crows, riddles and dreams. From the women who ran the so-called poisoner schools of old, to the ghosts who follow us home, these songs tell stories round the fire.

Guest musicians from across the US and Germany contributed their time and talents: S. J. Tucker, Alexander James Adams, Sharon Knight, Winter, Dr. Mary C. Crowell, Brenda Sinclair Sutton, Bill Sutton, Jen Midkiff, John Argentiero, W. Scott "Steve" Snyder, Stacy Koviak-Davison, Robyn Mackenzie, Katrina Trujillo-Lucero, Steve Macdonald, Sabine Kinder & Michael Kinder

Hemlock Honey and Crows (Deluxe) includes the 8-song album released Oct 29th 2021 PLUS the mixed & mastered solo versions of every song on the original release, for a total of 16 tracks. If you bought the [demo album] because you loved the piano/vocal treatments, now you can have them polished, shiny and new.
