Sounds Like: stark and vast... music that provokes images of dark nights and desert
skies...(naree watts, photographer)when i heard 'a fleeting glimpse' i heard moments that reminded me of one of my favourite bands - godspeed you! black emperor... beautiful instrumental passages of restrained intensity, that left you surprised when you opened your eyes to see only 3 people on stage. (pete, sodastream.)Improvising is part of A Fleeting Glimpse's character which allows the songs and soundscapes to be unique and take on different form depending on the room and the energy. the band has been likened to such acts as neko case, mazzy star, hem, cowboy junkies, dead can dance and performances can be sometimes an intimate duo or a dramatic 3 piece.
