Bio
.. Music is a mysterious journey to the sources of nature, harmony and man's soul. We believe we do not create music, but music speaks through us... We believe that music is a guide that lead one to Beauty and Harmony through time and space... Music is our sweat and tears, our sorrow and happiness, our life... We are grateful to all whose who are not indifferent, hope something we do will found a response inside you too... .... .. .... .. Our debut album "Covering for Solace" is released on Wrotycz Records! .... .. .. .. Here is an introduction made by the label: .... "Covering for Solace", a debut album of a Königsberg-based band "Sunset Wings", is a widely opened window to the world of romantic neo-folk music. Inspired by pearls of English romantic poetry together with traditional ballads of the British isles and the art of Pre-Raphaelites as well, this album takes you to a marvelous journey in the land of children dreams, sweet sorrow and melancholy. Silver strings of acoustic guitars and tender violin, deep cello sounds and warm flute, harmonica, brilliant piano, brightly sparkling percussion and music-boxes create a golden setting for the gems of William Blake, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Rudyard Kipling, Thomas Lovell Beddoes.. Lulled by Kipling's "White Seal" and gentle MacManus' "Softly now the Burn is Rushing", you will be dipped into a sleep together with nature in Rossetti's "Proserpine", feel the inexpressible sorrow of the loss of a lover in his "Death-Parting" and John Gay's "Ballad".
