Cygnet Wings EP
by Cygnet Wings
-
Digital Album
Cygnet Wings is a dull, musical roar conceived by Dan Hall and realized with the help of a few close friends. Cygnet Wings uses various acoustic instruments, a few of the simpler ones of which were made by Dan himself. The project mainly revolves around the interplay of Dan’s violin, his guitar, and his voice, with other elements added to fill out the compositions.
The Cygnet Wings EP, out now, was recorded in various residences in Gainesville, FL and Brooklyn, NY. Dan wrote all of the music, but good friend and long-time collaborator Alan Busch aided and abetted every step of the process, in such varied and multitudinous capacities as producer, recording engineer, harmonizer, drummer, and roommate. Other friends Chris Hiatt and TJ Masters also contributed vocal performances, good advice, and camraderie.Free Download

thunder peals, and summer steals
it's way back in you heart
and now you number wolves and winter
among things you forgot
old man river wakes, and sudden breaks
the ice across his back
the trees throw their stores of snow
on fresh-made badger tracks
mockingbirds once more are heard
in the forests of the world
and running vines and quiet minds
'round linden trees are curled
the plainsong verse of otters
at play in babbling brooks
joins every song of every evergreen
in every wood - Track Name: Lark
-
on the wings of the storm
you will be carried forth
to the nest you will return
body, breath and life secure - Track Name: Heed No Fell Voice
-
walk on, walk on my dear
through fields and through tears
and i will walk and never veer
through forests and through fears
"heed no earthly noise,"
the heavens sing
"heed not the fell voice
the north wind brings"
one day we will meet
at the edge of this wood
where forest and prairie
join and kiss
there we will build a house,
a place to call our own
and we'll be grafted into
each other and our home - Track Name: Jacob

sometimes at night
I sleep on the floor
I lay on my side, and like Jacob my thigh
is bruised in the mornin'
sometimes at night
when I can't sleep
I ride on my bike, 'til night air and moonlight
make me weak
sometimes at night
I hear Aaron sing
soaring and light, his voice full of fight
and beautiful things
