Kurosawa's debut album, 'Your Star Has Fallen Over' is now available from CD Baby as a digital download!

..KUROSAWA: Your Star Has Fallen Over..

Kurosawa is a musical collaboration between Paul Cartwright, Adam Spellicy and Karen Vogt. The result is a graceful collision of soaring, ethereal vocals and lushly atmospheric, infectiously melodic acoustic and electronic sounds.

Visit cdbaby. com/cd/kurosawa - you can listen to all 14 tracks before you buy.

We thank you for your support!
