about

'summer walkers' is a term given to indigenous highland travellers and this track came about after being told about one which slept each year in the woods near the home of someone i know

'Elizabeth Veldon’s ‘Songs For The Summer Walker In The Woods‘ has for nearly half of its 30 minute duration a gulf of silence before sparse clusters and single ringing piano notes amble into view. Occasionally more violentally struck gestures occur. An autumnal, chilly, still atmosphere pervades its length. Silence is a crucial component, the gaps between sounds over a track this long cause the listener to cling to the short periods of subtle instrumental work. ‘Songs For The Summer Walker In The Woods’ is a work of patience and calm with plenty of space for thought and reflection of your own. The music becomes at times a soft, welcome intrusion; dead leaves falling gracefully from a skeletal canopy.'
