about

Halcyon (home recordings vol.1). This EP is different to anything else I've ever done before. It was entirely recorded and mixed in various rooms in my house (I don't have a home studio, just a laptop and a mic!) The vocals and guitar on every track were recorded live. Anything else you hear was added afterwards and during mixing.

Halcyon ~ hal·cy·on
(adjective) Denoting a calm, happy period of time in the past that was idyllically peaceful and carefree.
(noun) A mythical bird said by ancient writers to breed in a nest floating at sea at the winter solstice, charming the wind and waves into calm.
(Middle English alceon, from Latin halcyon, from Greek alkyōn, halkyōn.)
