Cunnan

About Me

Cunnan's debut album was recorded and released in 2006 as a download via Woven Wheat Whispers and an art edition via Shining Day. Temple Music (Alan, Chris and Stephen) had started incorporating Twelve Thousand Days and Orchis songs into live shows with Tracy and Gemma Gerome sharing vocals, whilst Julie had contributed fiddle to the 'Demeter' part of 'Volume Two'. This more song based and less free form part of the show worked well and 'Foxfire And Aconite' arose out of a desire to REALLY warp and twist the folk tradition out of all recognition. Cunnan record and perform irregularly, with the next album due in 2008.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
