Black Earth and the Laughing Childe

About Me

Black Earth and the Laughing Childe is the soul flower of singer-songwriter Thorne a native of San Francisco.-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------When I hear Thorne's music, I am transported to dark woods on a mad, mist-driven ramble. I smell loamy earth and frankincense and wait among the shadows, energized and intoxicated. Black Earth has a rich, complex sound while the orchestrations themselves are spare, the poetry and passion come through loud and clear. Thorne is equally poet and musician; his lyrics are evocations of sharp images and reflections from his wanderings among the Shades. Thorne sings with musky clarity, drawing us in, as if sharing secret visions from a magician's crystal. His voice quavers, sometimes with energy, love, longing or anger barely contained. Black Earth and the Laughing Childe has a uniquely haunting quality that lingers long after the final chord is struck." -Blanche Barton------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------..This profile was edited with Thomas' myspace editor™ V2.5
