about

Anna writes:

'I never planned to write songs, but they insisted. The songs on 'Wake The Ancient' shaped themselves slowly over a stretch of time, appearing in dreams and in the gaps between washing up and putting children to bed. Songs tell the future. They know, very well, what we cannot yet see or understand. These songs have shaped me and go on re-shaping me. I am grateful to each of them.'

'Wake The Ancient' is Anna Kissell's first release and features a fine cast of Bristol musicians whose instruments and voices make up 'The Unsung Chorus'. Co-produced with Ruth Gordon at Bare Bones Studio (www.thebarebonescollective.com), the whole EP was recorded live to tape embracing the creak and the crunch of real people playing music together in one room.
