nosluap Glass Throat Recordings never disappoints. This album is absolutely gorgeous from start to finish. Every song is just filled with wonderful melodies and fantastic instrumentation and vocals. And, since I’m a relic and I’d much rather have the physical release rather than a download how could I go wrong buying this with the amazing packaging. Once again Chet Scott has unearthed another killer folk group that is the real deal. Buy this now! Favorite track: Mother.

RottingChris This piece of acoustic folk music has just blown me away. It's true, it's magical, it has a warming embrace and it feels like kind of home. It is something you're longing for from the deepest depths of your soul. Something archaic so to speak. The mother is calling...

***Unhallowed Ground*** This city howls with the sound, of endless voices on unhallowed ground. Layers upon layers of pain, no one escapes, no freedom is found. Oh, to simply breathe and be alive. Falling in place, our past and future in tow, mindless and tame for all that we know… Excess feeds our empty broken hearts and starves our souls! Oh, to simply breathe and be alive.
2.
Mother 08:32
***Mother*** Where the mountain meets the clouds I stand, absorbed in her beauty. In awe of the silence as the lullaby of the forest quells my aching heart… I can feel her breath wash over me. Gentle and warm, her touch heals me. A mother’s love fills my aching heart. Her soils lift me up to her breast, as the lullaby of the forest quells my aching heart… I can feel her breath wash over me.
3.
***Things Will Change*** We lit the match and walked away to watch it burn. From a distance we basked in the flames. We said goodbye to what once was our home and began to rebuild the strength of our name for… We are the ones changing the course for the ones that are born of our failures before. As we are now reborn from the ash, of a life we lived in vain. The slate is clean…we can change! Forevermore, we are changed! With wolves at the door, we gave into our fear. We watched as they tore away all that remained here. We are the ones changing the course for the ones that are born of our failures before.
4.
The Fire 08:56
***The Fire*** He is the roots, She is the trunk and I am the leaves. We are standing in soil so solidly that we will never fall down. I am my Father’s son and it feels like Home. Asleep in my Mother’s arms and it feels like Home. I am the waves and she is the ocean’s tide. We roll unceasingly, unaware of time... With the wind. I am my Father’s son and it feels like Home. Asleep in my Mother’s arms and it feels like Home.

***Pretend You’re A River*** Words by Derrick Jensen from his book Endgame, adapted by Robert Allen.
6.
Still 05:39
***Still*** I was a man with a wandering heart and a needless want to run so far. Having travelled a road of broken hearts and swam in a sea of fallen stars, Now, standing atop the highest of hills, my heart and breath are still. With a hole to fill that couldn’t be so, I was gone until you… I have loved and I have lost. But I am so thankful now, that I am not alone. For in your eyes I see myself, and with that I know, that I am truly home.
7.
***We Are Nothing*** The ancient Father Sky will wish the stars to fall. Our weeping Mother cries enough tears to wipe us all… From the earth. We are nothing without them! The raging river tries to wash away our very soul. The mountains in the sky will watch as we from greatness fall… Back to the earth. We are nothing without them!

***TESTIMONIALS***

"Of Hearth & Home is the summation of life, its spirit and spark, its darkness and warmth. It is the story of life, one life and all life. Directed by time in the city, in the woods, time alone or with companionship. Songs of Love & Warmth is a collection of stories about family, fatherhood, isolation, connection, aimlessness and direction. It is an outward projection of everything it is to be alive. The good and the bad, the beauty and the ugliness, everything that ultimately makes life what it is… a miracle worth celebrating."
