World class British multi-instrumentalists of whom HRH Prince Charles wrote "folk music played with such skill and verve is a very special thing indeed...' treat you to a heap of great arrangements of original and traditional songs and tunes.
Bio / Background
"If, like me, you're captivated by traditional and original music written with an eye on a genuine emotional connection, you won't find a finer record this year than Chasing the Dawn.
Sprinkled with discreet touches - notes perfectly judged and elegantly sustained, and self-produced, they wisely keep the sound uncluttered. Crook and Sears understand that sometimes the most meaningful sounds are those that you hear in your head, lurking in the spaces between the notes. Though vocal duties are shared, crafting delicate but indelible harmonies, Jenny takes the laurels for Under The Moon with its theme of abandon and independence and in The Footpath To Farleigh you have a virtual master class in modern songwriting on a traditional theme (disguised lover's return after foreign war) which measures out grief and resignation equally.
