Influences
We have been influenced by a lot of innovative and cross-over artists.
Sounds Like
It is perhaps difficult to pigeon-hole us, but we probably most resemble artists like The New World Renaissance Band, Cantiga, Loreena McKennit, Baltimore Consort, Blackmores Night, Ian Anderson, Pentangle, The Incredible String Band, vaguely like some of the Windham Hill artists… Hmmm, you let us know what you think…
The Spirites Consort is primarily known as a Renaissance band, though we have often branched out into different hybrids of jazz, folk and mainstream classical since the 1990s, especially in concert. The impetus for the band was innovation and improvisation on well-known folk and classical covers and to merge genres (cross-over). We are all seasoned players with many, many years of professional experience and the band has gone through some changes since its inception and is ever defining itself. Featured instruments include guitars, recorders, whistles, hammered dulcimer, double bass, violin, baritone violin and percussion.
Musical educational background of our players includes Berklee, New England Conservatory, Boston Conservatory, Eastman School of Music, College of Saint Rose and DePaul Unviversity.
“Spirites” is an olde English way of spelling “Spirits”.

thanks for the add! + really great music! i love it!!:)) thanks! + ..some quote from puruitan for You:))- God bless...
" As the devil labours by all means to keep out other things that are good, so to keep out of the heart as much as in him lies, the thoughts of passing from this life into another world; for he knows if he can but keep them from the serious thoughts of death, he shall the more easily keep them in their sins." - John Bunyan - (puritan divine)
Put together the first music video for one of the songs, that being for the song "Eel Marsh House", which is based on the movie "The Woman In Black". Wasn't sure to name it that instead of 'Eel Marsh..." ...Eel Marsh House being where the woman in black 'lived', and now haunts it. Though, she seems to haunt the general area of the village as well as the House. If anyone catches her gaze, looks into her eyes....a child will die, usually from the family of the person unfortunate to look at her. As you see what happens to the story's main character at the end.
Hope you like it, that's about all for now, Cheers! Rob
