Music for us is a mysterious journey to the sources of nature, harmony and man's soul. We believe we do not create music, but music speaks through us... Well, how can we explain that one of us being child heard the music inside and even "invented" her own system of writing note signs (without any idea of a real system), but after years she heard "new" songs and melodies that has already sounded in her head long ago? Or, another one hear the music (that he never heard before) in dreams or in state between dreams and reality? Maybe such things has happen to you too... And one of the main things we believe is that music must lead a man to harmony and beauty, like wings of sunset, covering and bringing solace to tired heart, rising up one's soul, helping in its traveling through time and space... We are trying to do the best we can, it's our sweat, our tears, our happiness... We are appreciate for all who are not indifferent, hope something will found a response inside you too...
Our debut album "Covering for Solace" is released on Wrotycz Records!
Here is an introduction made by the label:
“Covering for Solace", a debut album of a Königsberg-based band "Sunset Wings", is a widely opened window to the world of romantic neo-folk music. Inspired by pearls of English romantic poetry together with traditional ballads of the British isles and the art of Pre-Raphaelites as well, this album takes you to a marvelous journey in the land of children dreams, sweet sorrow and melancholy. Silver strings of acoustic guitars and tender violin, deep cello sounds and warm flute, harmonica, brilliant piano, brightly sparkling percussion and music-boxes create a golden setting for the gems of William Blake, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Rudyard Kipling, Thomas Lovell Beddoes.. Lulled by Kipling's "White Seal" and gentle MacManus' "Softly now the Burn is Rushing", you will be dipped into a sleep together with nature in Rossetti's "Proserpine", feel the inexpressible sorrow of the loss of a lover in his "Death-Parting" and John Gay's "Ballad". Falling leaves and snow cover the earth, waving trees speak with a breeze.. Would the echo sigh Farewell? Whom should we pray now? And should we?
But nevertheless the flowers are dying, pure souls are on their path to the immortal light, and melancholy is perceived as a possibility to create a beauty around us. Despite the sorrow of lyrics the music of this album more often is rather bright and fulfilled with sweet nostalgic melancholy, it should bring solace and serenity to the tired hearts. "Covering for Solace" is a river of caressing tenderness, the river of enchanting melodies that flows "amid the beaming of love's stars" to the sea of Harmony under the Eastern Sky.."
Comes in a 4 panel Digipack with 12 pages booklet including all the lyrics and charming paintings by Natalia Krutcina.
